More than half of the world’s new electric cars are now plugging into Chinese sockets instead of lining up at gas stations. By 2024, it is estimated that China’s EV sales were growing about 40% year on year, even as some Western markets stumbled.

China sold 11 million electric vehicles in one year, leaving less room for the oil it used to buy from Venezuela
But there is a basic question lurking behind the headlines. Who will actually need that oil in the years ahead? For years, China has been one of Venezuela’s

Secretary Howard Lutnick lied to the country about his ties to Epstein.

Now we learned that they were in business together.

He has no business being our Commerce Secretary.

He should resign.

Misinformation creates fear and hesitation, stopping people from accessing tech that already cuts bills, reduces emissions, and future-proofs homes.

Heat pumps aren’t a “nice-to-have” - they’re a practical, scalable solution now. Let’s focus on facts, not myths.

Electrifying heat cuts reliance on imported gas, protects households from volatile fossil fuel prices, and strengthens UK energy security - while boosting homegrown industries.

This is about jobs, resilience and a stronger economy.

Charging EVs as fast as petrol?
The future is closer than we think ⚡

One of the biggest barriers drivers still raise about EVs is charging time - with petrol refuelling seen as quicker and more convenient. That gap is about to shrink… fast.

Wild fact from @billmckibben.bsky.social's latest newsletter:

"The last colder-than-average month on planet earth was in February of 1985, which means that no one under the age of forty has ever known one."

🇦🇺☀️🔌 Solar power—from solar farms to millions of rooftops—is keeping coal at bay on Australia’s electricity grid as people try to beat the heat.

Driven by low-cost #solar, renewables now supply about half of Australia’s electricity over the year, frequently outperforming coal during the day.
Australia’s grid now relies on renewable energy as much as coal. Those who doubted it look foolish
Solar met the majority of electricity demand between 9am and 6pm in the past week as much of the country cranked air conditioners

🔌😷 A new study shows EVs clean up local air. In California neighbourhoods, asthma-causing nitrogen dioxide dropped 1.1% per 200 EVs added, while more gas cars meant more pollution.

"California's transition to electric vehicles is already making measurable differences in the air we breathe."
EVs Are Quietly Cleaning Up The Air. This New Study Proves It
California’s EV boom led to cleaner air in its neighborhoods, with satellite data linking this growth to lower NO₂ pollution.

🔋Batteries—a "skeleton key" for the entire energy transition—got cheaper again last year, according to BloombergNEF.

“Sacrificing everything to follow the U.S. is not even a choice we have anymore and probably not one that will position us for success in 10 or 15 years, when the world has gone that much further ahead in (the adoption and making of clean) technologies," says @racheldoran.bsky.social.

If you read climate news, 2025 was a bad year. But the headlines of denial and neglect risk drowning out a different, encouraging, story.

Already batteries are overtaking gas as a peak energy source, and we have far more capacity in the pipeline. #renewable #solar #Auspol.

wont be long before we don't need gas peaker plants at all!

is it any wonder fossil fuel companies are spending a fortune on disinformation and lobbying..
