@MLiebreich Thank you for sharing this.

@Bowenchris After cost and time, the real issue is that a nuclear plant is a baseload that can’t ramp up and down, so it is useless to complement a large renewable grid, which even now has negative prices for the midday period.

This is outrageous. Especially while the Federal Government still approves new mining and export of fossil fuels (coal and gas).
And spends pointless cost and energy pretending it is NOT a catastrophe.

@ProfPCDoherty @ConversationEDU Palo Alto (Malcolm Harris) explained the backstory perfectly of the present capitalism.

@TheKouk The scales are mostly different.
Australia stuck around-1.5 is about as good as most of the other countries if you look at the left hand axis

Civil wrongs https://t.co/us2MtcAgLt via @THEMONTHLY Time to stop these attacks on reasonable rights. Come on Labor, let us see some integrity!

Just a reminder to govts who think it is good and proper to jail those protesting against climate change, we're on track to blow our 2C carbon budget by 2034, and the 1.5C budget in 2028.

#auspol we can do this folks 👍🤗

@tonyowright Tony, well done, again

Global sea and air temperatures are spiking, ahead of El Niño. We should be very concerned #JustFDoit

@DrCraigEmerson @1RossGittins It (woke) has replaced "politically correct" but has the same goal - to avoid analysis of the issues and evidence

#Sandbagssupply
Why do we only fill sand bags after the flooding starts?
Surely we can arrange all the necessary bags to be filled and stored before the flooding rain starts.

#BurningNH3isBad
LPG's methane is 84 times CO2. So Green Ammonia burning is more than 3 times worse than LPG.

To be specific - the LPG (Methane) industry is bad news, anyway.
So the LPG solution is 44 GWU per molecule.
The Ammonia solution is 8,190 GWU per molecule.

#BurningNH3isbad
In comparison, when Carbon (weight 12) is burnt it combines with two O(xygen) (weight 16) atoms to create CO2  - 12+2(16) = 44. With a GWP of 1, CO2, gives a relative Global Warming effect of 44 units per molecule.

[Michael Pitcher @mpitcher58]

I’ve often wondered about NO and it’s Global Warming.
Just to clarify   #BurningNH3isBad
Ammonia NH3,when burnt the N(itrogen) (weight 14) combines with O(xygen) (weight 16) and it creates  30 units of NO, with 273 GWP (Global Warming Potential) molecular Warming effect of 8,190.

“Another fail” as Australian energy consumers overcharged by $10 billion Is that becaue they still Use the #DORC system to evaluate the assets? https://t.co/5rkQqnp0XN

Australian government launches offshore petroleum exploration permits for 47,000 sq km of ocean #WhiteElephantPolicy in 5 years time these will destroy any chance of achieving a safe Climate #JustDoNotDoit
