We literally live on the most beautiful paradise of a planet with trees and thousands of species of birds singing and colourful coral reefs… all which could be protected by billionaires… instead they want to go to a literal lifeless rock 🙄🙄🙄

He seems wedded to things he doesn't understand, whilst committed to gargling the deeply unclear language that he claims to oppose (Rule 10: “Be Precise in Your Speech”).
I wrote about his profound misunderstanding of evolutionary theory here:

It is of course good that the new mad Jordan Peterson book is getting the shoeing it so clearly deserves. But to those saying he has lost it, addled as he is by illness, drugs, small glasses of cider, and the curse of fame, he has always been this demented.
His first book is absolute nonsensical flapdoodle, garbled postmodern drool, dragons and Jung (whom he appears to not understand despsite idolising him). Here's a diagram from Maps of Meaning.

How does a worldview become so fractured that it ends up interpreting "15 minute cities" as "I'm banned from travelling more than 15 minutes from my house" rather than as "residents have all the daily necessities within a 15-min walk or bike ride, but can of course go anywhere"?

I’m so not up for 15 min communities. It will not work for families with active kids doing all sorts of activities. And whilst the little people get to live confined with little choice those in the WEF fly in their jets & on their yachts telling ‘ the people’ to reduce their lives. Who voted for these globalists?

Degrowthers could in fact easily become subsistence homesteaders if they wished. And yet they weirdly all choose to become knowledge economy entrepreneurs. Curious.

It's been great to have the @CNL_LNC team with us in our Warrington lab!
Moltex@MoltexEnergy
We are fortunate that @CNL_LNC are supporting us in the development of our Waste to Stable Salt (WATSS) process. CNL’s expertise will be vital in validating the research we are doing in Canada and in our laboratory in Warrington, UK to create WATSS – which will be used to convert spent #nuclear fuel. We were delighted to welcome a team of CNL scientists to Warrington recently to observe our own researchers and technicians in action and work alongside them. Our huge thanks to the team for visiting, and to CNL for their continuing support in making our #technology a reality. #energy #nuclearenergy #netzero #climateaction

Our CEO Rory O'Sullivan visited @argonne recently to see the progress that’s been made in creating a molten salt loop to test and validate our coolant salt! It’s one of the largest chloride salt loops in the world – we’ll be using it to model how fuel assemblies in our SSR-W reactor will function under different operating conditions, and gather data on heat transfer, corrosion and the salt’s behaviour. Huge thanks to the ANL team carrying out the amazing research with us. #nuclear #energy #nuclearenergy #cleanenergy #research

#Safety-case informed design is vital to cost-effectively developing a low-cost, rapid-deployment advanced #nuclear plant – and that needs early regulatory engagement. We’re delighted that after industry discussion with @energygovuk and the regulators across the past year, @The_ONR and @EnvAgency introduced early engagement to open a dialogue with SMR vendors.
We kicked off our early engagement with ONR and EA in September, with a hugely productive discussion on how our FLEX reactor will meet the principles of the UK’s world-renowned regulatory process. FLEX is built on passive safety – air cooled, walk-away safe, with passive reactivity control – and it was a pleasure to start discussing this with the regulators.

An important day for us here – we have completed in-house sintering of our simulated spent nuclear fuel for WATSS tests!
The simulated fuel will be used to prove the first stage of the WATSS process before hotcell tests with actual spent fuel.
WATSS (‘WAste To Stable Salt') is the reprocessing system we are creating for spent #nuclear fuel, which will reduce high-level waste volumes by over 90%. It will extract the useful transuranic elements, which can be used to create new fuel, and leave the depleted uranium behind as an easily stored low-radioactivity material.
These pictures show WATSS team members Jose P. Zuniga, Ricardo Ortega Vaquero, Connor Smith and James Moffat, who are making great strides in perfecting the technology.

£22bn for a technology that is a waste of time and was only ever an excuse to keep drilling. What an absolute joke.

What if I told you Google (like Amazon, Meta, & Microsoft) has been using nuclear this whole time but were buying magical certificates to claim that actually their power was 100% renewable

I remember being an undergraduate, and completly enthralled by the Anchiornis laser flourosence paper, the very fact we can study skin and muscle of dinosaurs. Wouldn't have predicted I'll be part of the same reach team, doing the exact same, but on pterosaurs.

Our CEO @DavidL_Moltex was pleased to discuss how advanced nuclear technologies like our FLEX reactor can make big contributions to achieving #netzero on the "#Nuclear in 21st Century Power Systems" panel at the @WUCongress in Abu Dhabi today!
