$48 billion of LNG assets at risk of being stranded assets? Sounds about right.

I reckon a fossil fuel being heavily promoted at climate week is a bad thing

Top headline game from The Guardian

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins? He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions. So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?

The truth: we need migration. The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it. Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality. Reject it. Draw the line.

I think there's something interesting in the combination of these two charts. The US is just barely a net exporter of fossil fuels, and also a relatively high cost oil producer. What happens to the politics of oil in the US if global demand & prices drop, but domestic demand doesn't? #EnergySky

Wow, I did not see that coming - solar panels as wind breaks for crops. They harvest energy when it’s more valuable too instead of competing with the mid day peak.

Yesterday thousands of people organized the BIGGEST day of action to celebrate clean energy in generations. 🙌 THANK YOU for making Sun Day 2025 a huge success! ☀️ Here are some incredible pictures from across the country 📸🧵

Happy Sun Day! Here is a photo of the sun setting over Exxon’s Golden Pass LNG industry. Some would argue the sun is setting on the LNG industry as a whole because they can’t compete with solar.

TODAY is Sun Day! ✴️ Thousands of people are coming together at 469 events across the U.S. and beyond to celebrate the power of clean energy. Today shines a bright light on the future that we all want - a cleaner, fairer, future for all. ☀️ Join an event near you today: sunday.earth

As Sun Day dawns, some of my favorite messages are from folks who are spending the day putting panels on Habitat for Humanity houses. They will be a blessing for decades to come, making those homes truly affordable

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

Dutch late night TV has its take

Private accounts when? And just reupping that I don't exist just on this app isaacsevier.com

no black person in this country has ever died by suicide via hanging from a tree btw

Bruh

Fucking cowards.

Published research backs you up. Most people only paid attention to the headline "nonviolent protest works", not the next part about how it worked because of the positive media coverage it earned. That media environment doesn't exist anymore. bsky.app/profile/owas...

Saying we’re going to have to learn to live with each other and debate in the marketplace of ideas while the president is purging comedians off the TV is why people are not reacting positively to Ezra Klein.

When journalism was cool. And risked everything to challenge power.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

"EVs cut costly oil imports."

This seems timely based on earlier convos this week, @ketanjoshi.co

Wow, India has a geothermal policy now? I had no idea India even had much in the way of geology that suited geothermal! Getting energy out of the ground as heat to make steam to make power feels much more 21st century than getting coal out of the ground to burn to make steam to make power 👍

Incredible mix of fatalism and solutionism here. AI means we can't hit near-term goals, but AI will magically enable us to hit our 2050 goals. In the real world: a couple of eye-watering and unprecedented fossil-fuelled data centres are coming into existence www.nola.com/news/busines...

A man in Washington, DC, plays the Imperial March from Star Wars while following patrolling soldiers. One of the soldiers threatens to call the police.

I am advocating for you to be killed but I am using my inside voice you must debate me this is called democracy

Claude, "We all know among Sauron's many evils was that he ran Mordor using an Excel spreadsheet with multiple tabs. Show me the spreadsheet" It made 12 tabs "so bureaucratically complex that even the Eye of Sauron would need reading glasses to review it." Some very funny stuff. Creative, even.

This is a nice illustration of how waste powers production. The idea of single-use, discardable plastic 'filling up landfills' was magic for producers. This is the same principle behind fossil fuel companies producing energy, and the tech companies that waste it www.jasontreat.com/plastic-1

It seems like the US has decided to make itself at best an energy transition sideshow, and at worst a retrograde fossil freak show.

Everybody yells at the publications that are getting millions in funding from billionaires, but I'd just like to put it out there that my little publication is pretty poor and would definitely benefit from a million or two.

Once again thinking about Macaulay Culkin walking into the Parisian café where the wifi password was “Macaulay Culkin” and the owner saying “I knew you’d come here someday”

Jamaica won't get disaster bond payouts for Beryl: "Due to the specific terms of the bond, which was arranged by the World Bank, investors will be shielded from any financial losses. 'The air pressure required for a payout of the cat bond wasn’t reached.'" www.phenomenalworld.org/analysis/ins...

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment. Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

okay @robinsonmeyer.bsky.social won the email subject line game today, this is 🤌 (good excuse to plug the very good @heatmap.news newsletter too!)

EPA has been giving this same quote on the "cancellation" of grants: “Maybe the Biden-Harris Administration shouldn’t have forced their radical agenda of wasteful DEI programs and ‘environmental justice’ preferencing on the EPA’s core mission of protecting human health and the environment.”

Every time he signs one of his dumb proclamations and holds it up to the cameras from now on, everyone's going to be reminded of the Epstein birthday card.

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge? It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Wow, so Atlassian is a browser company now? I did *not* see that one coming. At 610M USD in cash for the acquisition, that's in the same ballpark as Mozilla's annual revenue in 2023. www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...
