Carl Sagan’s prediction about America, made 31 years ago.

The government should go all in on home battery storage right now tbh If 1 million Irish homes got a 15-20KWh battery, during peak demands houses would run on them and 1.5-2GW would be taken off the grid And at an individual level cut electricity bills by 25% conservatively

European State of the Climate 2025 is out, and it’s clear: Europe is warming twice as fast as the global average. Hidden away on page 145: the list of laws that can help Europe take action on climate. climate.copernicus.eu/esotc/2025

The world does not need new nuclear power. Yet institutions like the World Bank, the ADB and other development banks are stubbornly marching towards an economic disaster that creates toxic waste and exacerbates the climate crisis by redirecting scarce resources away from technologies that have long proven themselves cheaper, faster, cleaner and more effective. There are many solid arguments against this waste of taxpayer money. This report serves as a compilation of science-based theses against the renaissance of nuclear power. In five thematic articles, four renowned scientists and an expert on Russian nuclear policy provide key facts and figures on the topic. The renewed push for nuclear power is often framed as a pragmatic response to climate change and energy insecurity. In times of geopolitical tension and accelerating climate impacts, the promise of a supposedly “clean”, reliable and scalable technology appears tempting. Yet this narrative does not withstand serious economic, ecological or geopolitical scrutiny. This report makes clear why the growing support for nuclear power, by governments and increasingly also by multilateral financial institutions, is a costly misallocation of scarce public resources.

The Trump family has made $4 billion off the presidency. Crypto: $3.02B Persian Gulf deals: $425.8M Qatari jet: $150M Legal fees/merch: $127.7M Mar-a-Lago: $125M Corporate deals: $91M Hanoi hotel: $40M Truth Social: $25M Don Jr: $19.6M Unprecedented kleptocracy.

🇺🇸 WARREN BUFFETT: "I can end the U.S. deficit problem in 5 minutes." "Just pass a law that any time there's a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all members of Congress are ineligible for re-election."

Humans are the only creatures that need to be told not to destroy their own home. May every day be Earth Day.

EU electricity: 29% fossil fuels in 2024, down from 53% in 2005. Progress. But transport 92% fossil. Buildings: 71%. Industry: 61%. 95% of EU oil & 88% of gas imported. Switching suppliers doesn't fix this. Electrification and efficiency do. More here: rdcu.be/feOjc

Earth Day 2026; on a planet where warming is accelerating, Earth loses resilience, 7 of 9 planetary boundaries breached - is a reminder we cannot exclude pushing our "blue dot" along a Hothouse Earth path, drifting towards a less and less liveable home. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Sledgehammer was released 40 years ago today! "As a teenager, soul music was one of the things that made me want to be a musician. It was really passionate and exciting... Wayne Jackson, who plays on that track, was also with Otis Redding and was touring with him when I saw them in London. So that was a thrill for me, just to get a whole lot of fan stories. But I think the song was more influenced by many of those Stax and Atlantic tracks rather than Otis particularly."

Warren Buffett says if the top 800 other major corporations paid what Berkshire Hathaway did in taxes, Americans wouldn't have to pay a dime in income taxes, or any taxes “If we send in a check like we did last year, we send in over $5 billion to the US federal government, and of 800 other companies had done the same thing. No other person in the United States would've had to pay a dime of federal taxes. Other income taxes, no social security taxes, no estate taxes — It doesn't bother me in the least to write that check, and I would really hope with all the America's done for all of you, it shouldn't bother you that we do it” You understand what he’s saying here right? We are subsidizing corporations cheating on taxes with our income tax Abolish the Income Tax

Spain is crushing it ⚡🇪🇸 Solar is delivering the equivalent of 27 nuclear plants during the day. Pumped hydro stores ~3 nuclear plants worth. Batteries already stepping in. This isn’t a generation problem anymore. It’s storage scale. Energy scarcity → energy timing. #BESS

$760M short on oil. Placed 20 minutes before the Hormuz announcement. This is the 3rd time. March 23: $500M short — 15 minutes before Trump delayed Iran strikes. Oil dropped 15%. April 7: $950M short — hours before the US-Iran ceasefire. April 17: $760M short — 20 minutes before Hormuz declared open. The CFTC is investigating. The ‘peace trade’ was sold to retail. Someone else got out first. Who knew?

APPLEBAUM: Trump administration wants to do business with Russia, and war in Ukraine is an obstacle. They treat it like trivial problem that could be solved if Zelenskyy would just step aside. It’s profound arrogance, ignorance, and hubris all wrapped into one. This is a really big war. It’s a war about European civilization, the same civilization they claim to care about. It’s about sovereignty. Do Ukrainians not deserve sovereignty? This is illustrative of the deep shallowness of Trump administration and their inability to spend even five minutes trying to understand what these conflicts around the world are actually about.

It is important that Russia is held accountable for this aggression – legally and in practice. And that Russian war criminals do not enjoy normal life, but face fair sentences. This is necessary. Just as it was necessary after the Second World War. This is what we are doing here in Europe, here in the Netherlands. We are working to launch the Tribunal for Russia’s aggression against Ukraine – and I thank you for your help. We are working to ensure that the international legal system is firm and uncompromising toward Russian war criminals. Please support this. And please remember – all freedoms are fragile without the most basic freedom: freedom from ruins. Without basic security. And when those who start wars feel no accountability. So do not let Russia go unpunished. From my address to the participants of the Four Freedoms Awards ceremony (3/3).
