CORRECT: You know the Vic Libs' special brand of incompetence well. Louise Staley promised a Royal Commission in response to a Facebook conspiracy theory by cookers claiming Mitchell was killed by rubber bullets — he was actually injured in a fight over cans of bourbon. #auspol
Shouldn't the attempted assassination of the US's third ranking politician by a conspiracist spurred by hateful misinformation from the GOP and Murdoch media be bigger news?
In 3 yrs this #solar installation at a high school in Arkansas turned the district budget from a $250K deficit to a $1.8 million surplus. They're using the surplus to increase teacher salaries.
We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate#climate#renewables#cop27
i bet australia’s national electricity market will go from 3% wind+solar (in 2012) to 70% wind+solar in a similar (if not shorter) timeframe, @BieglerTom.
A dark money group is running ads promoting fossil fuels and attacking clean energy in the final weeks before the election.
The PAC has spent more than $1 million to reach voters in 7 swing states.
And someone just sent me documents revealing who's funding it.

@bridgerollo@georgiecrozier@SouthwickMP@abcmelbourne So day one of the official election campaign and all we're getting from @LiberalVictoria is cheap stunts.

it'll be a major achievement if there's even a single fully operational SMR in any of the countries above before 2030.
[yes, yes, plenty of announcements… but if wishes were horses…]

@MichaelSukkarMP What a shame we didn't vote you out with your party. So close.
Your govt wasted 10 pushing us backwards and it's never your fault.
So glad the adults are running the country now and not your unaccountable lot.
a new report on the state of climate action looked at 40 indicators of change and found not a single one is on track to keep the world from heating to the level at which world leaders promised to try to stop global warming 1/
The sun and wind aren’t getting more expensive. The war in Ukraine has driven up the price of coal and gas. Our reliance on fossil fuels has caused the blowout in energy prices.
Explain to me like I'm 10 years old: If a CO₂ removal (CDR) technology is so energy intensive that it requires renewable energy to be effective, why isn't it better to use that renewable energy to replace fossil fuels before we're at net zero?
