In 2006, all of Southern Australia's electricity came from fossil fuels. Now it has one of the world's greenest energy grids. #ItCanBeDone

We have so many solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

Tens of thousands of oxygen-starved fish washed up dead in Texas due to the devastating impact of climate change. Another example of how the fossil fuel industry destroys the planet's life-nourishing ecosystems: https://t.co/bmlvuppWbJ

Top June 1982. Bottom 2023. 1982 became a super El Nino, 2023 maybe by late fall. You see the respective El Niño's in the Pacific, but what stands out is the red in 2023 across the oceans. This is what background climate heating has accomplished in 4 decades. H/T @ericfisher

Over 1 million marine organisms are killed each year due to plastic pollution in the ocean. It's time to end plastic pollution.

There is no planet B. Use less, buy less, waste less.

The people who dismissed the risks of Truss's fiscal policy causing a market meltdown were largely the same people who dismissed the economic risks of a No Deal Brexit. Not a coincidence.

UPDATE

UK gas power now costs a staggering NINE TIMES more than new renewables

The average wholesale price for electricity over the past 7 days – set by gas power – was £446/MWh

In July, the govt secured 11GW for an avg £48/MWh

With over 52 million tons of PET (polyethylene terepththalate) used in clothes & apparel every year, one company is aiming to make a difference when it comes to #sustainability by using enzymes to biologically break down PET so that it can be reused in new items #biotech

[The Chemical Engineer magazine @tcemagazine]

To help end clothing waste @Carbios has signed a deal with four big brands to take back clothes and apparel containing PET, biologically break them down into their fundamental elements, and then reuse the recycled fibres in new items

The Inflation Reduction Act, which has been signed into US law this week, will inject more than US$370bn into #climate and low-carbon programmes to kickstart a new era of affordable clean energy in America, while helping to reduce #CO2 emissions

A team of Swiss researchers at @ETH_en has been working on an experiment to break down water and CO2 collected from the air using concentrated solar energy and then turning it into kerosene-the main ingredient in jet fuel..

A great article by my colleague @adam_tce and it won't just apply to Chemical Engineers. I know my astronomy friends would also like to see the UK keep its links with the EU's #Horizon programme.

I am always amazed at the ingenuity of projects such as these. Here's hoping it's a viable way to reduce #CO2 and to make into something useful..

New climate models have found that the amount and location of land on an Earth-like planet’s surface can significantly impact its habitability..
