This is astonishing: Solar panels have become 98% cheaper in 20 years. I'm thinking about making a solar fence. 🌞🛰️⚡️
Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.
Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

When you switch from fossil to clean you only use like 30-40% of the energy to do the same stuff, bc most energy from fossil fuels is lost as waste heat

<div class="content">
<div class="field field-field-text"><p>Normally, Moaz Abo Rokba waited a few days after a ceasefire in Gaza before returning home to inspect the damage.</p>
<p>But when a truce was announced earlier this month to end the war, the <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/palestine" target="_blank">Palestinian</a> veterinarian could not wait.</p>
<p>He immediately travelled back to Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip to see what had become of his neighbourhood.</p>
<p>His brother, Abdelrahman Abo Rokba, tried calling several times to make sure he had arrived safely, but the phone network was down. Much of northern Gaza’s infrastructure had been destroyed during <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/israel" target="_blank">Israel</a>’s two-year <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/topics/israel-genocide-gaza" target="_blank">genocidal war</a>. </p>
<p>The next morning, as the family prepared breakfast in their shelter in southern Gaza, Abdelrahman received a phone call from his cousin, Iyad Abo Rokba. </p>
<p>“He asked if we had heard from Moaz,” Abdelrahman told Middle East Eye. </p>
<p>“Then he told us that witnesses had seen him killed after an Israeli air strike in Jabalia.”</p>

What was behind the 2024 record jump in atmospheric CO2 concentrations? A massive 20% of human emissions that should have been absorbed by the land and oceans was left in the atmosphere.

Are Earth’s natural carbon sinks collapsing?
Atmospheric CO2 levels jumping a record 3.5ppm in 2024, while human emissions remained largely constant. This suggests reduced carbon absorption by land and ocean sinks which will accelerate warming.
