@actgovernment The https://t.co/aWyqY2RwAS link is broken. Moral of the story: don’t use link shorteners, just post the original URL. Another moral of the story: stop posting on Xitter :)
Sooo.. Germany is capable of bringing mothballed power plants online. But only coal power plants, not recently shut #nuclear plants? You gotta be kidding me.
Whether the topic is:
- Climate change
- GMOs
- Nuclear power
- Vaccines
- Homeopathy
- Astronomy
- Evolution
- or Covid-19...
...People who disagree most with the scientific consensus know less about the topic, but they think they know more.

Amazing scene. Maldivian divers Faya, Niya & Firaaz manages to free this whale shark, truly heroic work in Olhigiri Kandu, Thaa Atoll this morning. The shark is injured should make a full recovery. So important to reduce marine pollution that can harm wildlife. Well done divers.
First night of Germany's grid without nuclear: it's bad.
It's night. No sun. Wind has dropped to almost nothing.
Most of German "renewables" right now is richly-subsidized bioenergy with half the net CO2 emissions of an efficient gas power plant.
Importing nuclear from France.
Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today.
First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.
We are already experiencing the consequences of our warming world & are now at a climate crossroads.
The choices we make now will determine the future experiences of those already alive, and those yet to be born.
If we choose not to act,
Or fail to adapt,
Then suffer we will.

My new favorite thing - Bing's new ChatGPT bot argues with a user, gaslights them about the current year being 2022, says their phone might have a virus, and says "You have not been a good user"
Why? Because the person asked where Avatar 2 is showing nearby
MYTH: radiation is uniquely dangerous, and there’s no safe exposure – no matter how small.
REALITY: the idea of “no safe exposure” has caused far more harm to public health than actual radiation from all nuclear accidents.

@PhillipAdams_1 I'd suggest trying Mastodon - you don't have to leave Twitter to do that! Mastodon is generally much more civilised (now that Musk has empowered the RWNJs), and as a large network of independent nodes it can never be taken over by a delusional billionaire.
(1) The mother of all extreme events ever seen in Europe is NOW. 1st of many tweets coming.
In #France 113 January records so far!
Temperatures up to 24.9C at Trois Ville.
