This week we are wrapping up season one of our 'Saving the World from Bad Ideas' podcast.

@marklynas.bsky.social is joined by producer @robdeschutter.bsky.social to explore the concept of bad ideas: are we only challenging others' bad ideas, or also our own?

Reports expect a 3 meter high wave. After the 2011 incident a 15 meter high seawall was installed. The evacuation was purely precautionary and is expected temporary.

There is no denying the urgency of decarbonisation. But if we do not distinguish between fossil fuels that lock in emissions for decades and those that offer a short-term bridge to health, dignity, and development, we risk deepening existing inequalities while doing nothing to save the planet.

Sad but true
At the heart of this campaign is a critique of what we call carbon colonialism: a new form of climate injustice in which the poorest are asked to sacrifice the most, while the richest continue to expand the very emissions infrastructure they refuse to allow in Africa.

Good news for a technology neutral future.
Germany's opposition to nuclear energy has been a major barrier to EU efforts to phase-out fossil fuels.

The new German government's openness to nuclear energy will help accelerate the clean energy transition across the EU & globally.

I'm part of the climate anxiety generation, but I found hope in science.

Championing science has resulted in me being attacked by the left for defending the science on nuclear energy, & the right for defending climate science.

Science, not dogma, will lead to a better future.

Cultivated meat. It could end factory farming, rewild the planet & save the climate. But it could also be about to be banned. Yes, banned, as in made illegal.

That's why we need your help, together we can build a grassroots movement in defence of cultivated meat.

1/ Does climate activism work?

The short answer is yes, and there's been lots of research this year showing how

Here are some highlights

Cost is nuclear's central challenge, not waste. That said, for the price we are now paying for offshore wind in NJ (or ~1/2 what we pay for rooftop solar), we could probably order four AP1000s and get them done well before 2035 at a lower levelized cost (while producing more valuable energy).🤔

Narrative violation!

And their model only assumes 70% capacity factor + 40 years of life… In America it’s >90% & 80 years!

We call on the European Parliament to next week vote in favour of #NGTs.

This would mean EU farmers have access to better crops.

✅ Higher yields
✅ More climate resilient
✅ More resilient to pests and disease
✅ Require fewer inputs

A win for food security and our environment.
