I like sci-fi, climate solutions, running, yoga, crochet, mindfulness. Don't like fascism, AI, fossil fuels, broligarchs.

Solar is dispatchable.

"After a 40% drop in battery equipment costs in 2024, the industry is now on track for another major fall in 2025. The economics of battery storage are unrecognizable, and the industry is still adjusting to this new reality." -Kostantsa Rangelova
Battery storage hits $65/MWh – a tipping point for solar
Battery storage costs have fallen to $65/MWh, making solar plus storage economically viable for reliable, dispatchable clean power.

Good thread on why every small action matters in the giant fight against climate change.

Or to put it another way, the fact that I personally can't fix the whole problem does not relieve me of the moral obligation to do what I can.
My position on taking action. And on the important space between everything and nothing.

Electric vehicles accounted for 25% of new cars sold worldwide in 2025, but EV sales in the US have been stuck at 10% since 2023. Will China’s dominance in the EV industry catapult it secure greater economic power?

EVs made up 25% of global car sales in 2025. In the U.S., they only made up 10%.

An excellent write-up of what's to come. And a reminder why it's worth fighting to avoid every single tenth of a degree of warming we can. (It's bad. I choose to fight for less bad.)

My 3 climate home truths: 1) The climate damage from fossil fuels is permanent. 2) without an explicit plan by govts to quickly end fossil fuel use we’re losing the human friendly climate. 3) Without subsidies and a free pass on climate damage the fossil carbon corps assets are stranded.

One of my rapidly growing pet peeves from energy bro's is when they discount the reason we need to transition from FF. They compare it to previous transitions, but we've never been in the situation where the actual sustainability of our civilization depends on the transition.

Yep. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) has not been shown to work at scale, and even if it did, it would only scratch the surface of what's needed. There is no alternative -- WE MUST STOP BURNING FOSSIL FUELS.

Unless you believe AI will grant the ability to edit the laws of physics*, the planetary crisis is still going to be a far bigger driver of change in human society over the next ten years.

Even most smart folks simply don't grasp the scale of discontinuity we've set in motion.
