Figures for last years climate disaster costs are staggering. The insurance industry will fail or simply pull the plug in many regions within this decade. What impact on society that will have is yet to be seen.

Whew. Hakeem Jeffries took the GOP to school from A to Z. Literally. (h/t @Acyn)

[Ricky Davila @TheRickyDavila]

Congressman Hakeem Jeffries is really good at this. Really good.

Probably nothing.

The climate movement has focused on shifting hearts and heads--now it has to also focus on shifting homes (and there are 140 million of them in America)

The world has warmed about 1.2C since the mid-1800s. Our best estimate is that all of this warming is due to human emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. https://t.co/pYY3n7Zhva @carbonbrief

#Antarctic sea-ice extent is the lowest on record for the current date - note that the magnitude of the anomaly (aka the area of missing ice) is the 2nd largest year on record (after 2016).

This week, when “the news” slows to a trickle like clockwork, you learn that “the news” is a product manufactured by corporations to capture your attention by manipulating your emotional state.

A year ago, energy analysts predicted that 160-180 GW of solar would be built in 2022.

So how'd those predictions turn out? They underestimated solar's growth by 50-70%.

~270 GW of solar was built in 2022.

Just because it's cold for a day, a week, or a season, it doesn't mean global warming is over. All months have been warming since recordkeeping began in 1880, including December. The main cause: human activities. Stay tuned next month for the Dec. 2022 data point.

Thread: Each week I’m running a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with just 5 hrs of storage (24 GW / 120 GWh)
Results:
last week: 100% RE
last 69 weeks: 99.0% RE (1/4)

“It’s a huge problem,” said David Gahl, executive director of the Solar and Storage Industries Institute, a research group affiliated with the solar industry. “If we don’t make changes, we’re not going to meet state and federal targets for climate change.”
