Another mindless Republican politician just blamed the power outage in Texas on the Green New Deal. Hello? It hasn't been implemented yet. Over 80% of Texas power is from non-renewables.
@BBCEarth@hourd_jeremy i have these in the backyard. in the spring in their vernal pools they make some of the strangest chattering sounds you will ever hear.

i have no connection to the nuclear industry, i do live near a nuclear plant, i am a treehugger, and i became a nuclear advocate when i stopped arguing about climate change and started *actually looking* at the decarbonization problem.
.@1a your guests were quick to point out china (a developing economy) is still building coal plants (so is germany), but failed to even mention that nuclear energy is a major component of chinese energy plans. even the most cursory look would reveal this basic fact.
