A thread -- which world leaders are calling for a shift to clean energy as a security investment in light of Iran War? First up, French President Macron: "...everything we do to more toward the transition is also about reducing our dependence.." (1/x) #cleanenergyisnationalsecurity

It's a good time to revisit this story about how Denmark doubled down on energy efficiency and homegrown clean energy after the oil crisis of the early 1970s, and how it's now reaping the benefits. theprogressplaybook.com/2025/11/18/l...

⚡ ''Yet that state of vulnerability forced Denmark to start developing a more efficient, diversified, and self-sufficient energy system. Decades later, the country of 6 million people is the world leader in decarbonisation..'' #Denmark #Climateaction #Complexity

It's just been confirmed that Monash University is dropping Woodside as a partner because they don't align with their sustainable values. This is an incredible win for @stopwoodsidemonash.bsky.social who have run a dedicated grass roots campaign for years.

Those who say we can’t shift to a clean energy economy are WRONG - there are over a dozen countries well on their way to 100% renewable power. And we need to get back to competing in and winning this race.

The world’s largest electric vehicle isn’t a car or bus—it’s the eDumper, a 45-tonne mining truck in Switzerland. It hauls 65 tonnes and can finish a shift with more charge than it started, thanks to regenerative braking. If we can electrify mining trucks, what’s next?
