Repowering and Decarbonizing the global coal power plant fleet with modular nuclear reactors is probably the single best climate investment humanity could make. Turning coal plants from a polluting liability into baseload Carbon free energy 24/7. https://t.co/TF765OwSXL

Soil has the potential to sequester 330GT of Carbon from the air globally, if we can create the technology to measure it. Terrain AI will deliver Azure technology for affordable IoT Soil Carbon data, so farmers can capture CO2 into their soil and earn revenue from Carbon Markets.

.. and distributed rooftop solar which can be a driver of equitable decarbonization, getting everyone in society off of the treadmill of energy costs.

[Conor Kelly @conor20]

According to the International Energy Agency, Solar is now the "cheapest electricity in history” with the technology cheaper than coal and gas in most major countries. https://t.co/Nh1BAyBp5S

It's truly astonishing how quickly the cost of solar has fallen even in the last few years as it gained global investment. Solar now presents us with an opportunity to decarbonize vast swaths of our economies with both large scale solar deployments...

Our latest article in @GreenBiz asks an important question of corporations: "Is 100 percent #renewableenergy the best we can collectively do? Or is there a way to achieve even deeper reductions in their climate emissions footprint?" #AER

His passing has left an intellectual vacuum in his wake. But it's not empty. Think of it as a kind of vacuum energy permeating the fabric of spacetime that defies measure. Stephen Hawking, RIP 1942-2018.
