Delighted to present my latest with @cepa on the Chinese wind industry and the need for Europe and the US to catch up. I encourage you all to give it a read and look forward to interesting discussions on these topics: #Renewables#EVs#climate https://t.co/BDA4iv8XRX
New study: each "1°C increase in global temperature leads to a 12% decline in world GDP."
Society loses more than $1,000 for every ton of CO2 emitted.
Climate inaction is bankrupting us.
No time to wait. #ActOnClimate
Big thank you to @CambWireless for organising, and to excellent tour guide Peter - there can be none better than someone who works there! @MSSLSpaceLab

Hedy Lamarr was a Hollywood actress in the 1940s and 1950s, and she was considered "the most beautiful woman in the world" during her time.
She began her acting career in Austria and became notorious for being the first woman to simulate an orgasm on screen in 1933.
It was during this time that she also got married to Friedrich Mandl, a Vienna-based arms dealer with ties to Mussolini and later Hitler.
The marriage did not last long. In her own words, she wrote, "I knew very soon that I could never be an actress while I was his wife... He was the absolute monarch in his marriage... I was like a doll. I was like a thing, some object of art which had to be guarded and imprisoned, having no mind, no life of its own."
According to her autobiography, she disguised herself as one of the maids and managed to flee to Paris.
Others say she convinced her husband to wear all of her jewelry for a dinner party and then disappeared afterwards.
She eventually booked a liner to New York, where she met the head of MGM, who was impressed enough to offer her a $500-a-week contract to work as an actress. In 1938, she arrived in Hollywood and went on to star in several movies, working with the likes of Clark Gable and James Stewart.
Beyond her acting career, Lamarr was also co-patented spread-spectrum technology during World War II to prevent the Nazis from jamming navy torpedoes.
However, her invention was rejected and wouldn't be implemented until the Cold War in 1962. The technology would eventually be used in developing Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology.
Absolute nonsense. The UK can be powered from offshore wind and energy storage, improving energy security. Why increase dependency on hostile and unstable regimes, now that our own reserves have been squandered? #climate#gas#energy https://t.co/oHqaKdu1K7
South Australia went from 1% renewables in 2007 to 68% in just over 15 years. It's on track for 100% renewable energy by 2030.
It can be done.
We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate#climate#energy#renewables#solar#wind
Intel: “no way we can be in the foundry business without partnering with Arm. Arm is the most important partner to have.” #semiconductor#chips https://t.co/umRMfif1FF
A UK #recession is no surprise but today’s numbers are another reminder of the UK’s poor productivity and our lack of business and infrastructure investment. We need more people working (there are 8m+ economically inactive people) yet we have a labour shortage
In my hands is my first iPod. Steve Jobs is smiling at me. Everybody at the Apple Store is smiling.
I take off my Apple Vision. I am back in the retirement home. Nobody has visited me for 12 years. I put it back on.
I hold my iPod. Everybody in the Apple Store is smiling.
