@ProfRayWills Like showing buggy-whip shops dominating the market. Old dirty tech sold as cleaner than coal when it pre-burns min 20 years of coal before deployment.

Everything will be solar - your house - the outhouse - the Opera House - the big house on the hill in Canberra My future pics of when Australia makes it to 100% renewables Batteries are included - in the building. My old pics made with Photoshop, not AI x.com/ProfRayWills/s…

What if all houses were renewable? Your house? The outhouse? Sydney Opera House? Parliament House? Aus building Ministers agree to 7-Star minimum NatHERS in the National Construction Code for 1 May 2023 States must act to enact in state legislation ASAP theguardian.com/australia-news…

@terrychristian The problem is weather data plaguing the forum Land temps have: A) gone down over the last 25 years B) are much lower than the 1890-1930s C) anybody of age, has experienced warmer summers & winters D) newspaper articles posted on X confirm these facts Start with truth, then fix

Dear Climate change deniers . Today UK broke it's May temperature record by 2C. The UK has temperature records going back 350 years and in all that time we have never come close to this May temp. Without climate change this temp in UK would be impossible

Das niederländische Meteorologische Institut löschte historische Hitzewellen aus der Statistik Im Jahr 2016 korrigierte das Niederländische Meteorologische Institut die Temperaturwerte in De Bilt, der wichtigsten Klimastation des Landes. Die Tageshöchstwerte von 1901 bis 1950 wurden um bis zu 1,9 °C nach unten korrigiert, wodurch 16 von 23 Hitzewellen aus den Aufzeichnungen gestrichen wurden. Die geänderten Daten wurden anschließend herangezogen, um zu behaupten, dass die heutigen Hitzewellen beispiellos seien. Vier Forscher stellten die Änderungen in Frage, doch das Institut wies die Kritik zurück, sodass die Analyse einer Peer-Review unterzogen wurde. Im Jahr 2021 wurde sie veröffentlicht und belegte schlüssig, dass die Methode historische Hitzeextreme systematisch auslöschte. Heute hat das Meteorologische Institut stillschweigend seinen Ansatz geändert, und infolgedessen wurden sieben ausgelöschte Hitzewellen wiederhergestellt, darunter der extreme Sommer von 1947. Auch hier haben wir wieder eine Regierungsbehörde, die dabei erwischt wurde, die Klimageschichte umzuschreiben. Das niederländische Meteorologische Institut löschte Hitzewellen der Vergangenheit, ignorierte Kritiker und stellte die Wahrheit erst wieder her, als die Beweise nicht mehr zu ignorieren waren. Politische Maßnahmen basierten auf diesen manipulierten Aufzeichnungen. Niederländische Landwirte verloren ihre Existenzgrundlage. Die Industrie und die Wirtschaft insgesamt zahlten den Preis. Orwell hat eines vergessen: „Jede Akte wurde vernichtet oder gefälscht, jedes Buch umgeschrieben, jedes Bild neu gemalt, jede Statue, jede Straße und jedes Gebäude umbenannt, jedes Datum geändert. Jede Hitzewelle wurde aus den Statistiken gelöscht. Und dieser Prozess geht Tag für Tag und Minute für Minute weiter. Die Geschichte hat aufgehört. Es existiert nichts außer einer endlosen Gegenwart, in der die Partei immer recht hat.“

In 2016, the Netherlands Meteorological Institute adjusted temperatures at De Bilt, the country's main climate station. Daily maximums from 1901 to 1950 were lowered by up to 1.9C, which removed 16 of 23 heatwaves from the record. The altered data were then used to claim modern heatwaves were unprecedented. Four researchers challenged the changes, but the institute dismissed the criticism, so the analysis went to peer review. In 2021, it was published, conclusively demonstrating the method systematically erased historical heat extremes. Today, the Meteorological Institute has quietly changed its approach, and as a result, seven erased heatwaves have been restored, including the extreme summer of 1947. Here again, we have a government agency caught rewriting climate history. The Netherlands Meteorological Institute erased heatwaves of the past, ignored critics, and reinstated the truth only when the evidence became impossible to ignore. Policies were built on that manipulated record. Dutch farmers lost livelihoods. Industry and the wider economy paid the price. But accountability is coming.

@writethewrongs2 How they make “silicon” wafers for solar, Huge furnaces overall 8 years coal. Then 1/2 lost in assembly Then 15-27% lost in install Far far worse than coal alone

We have to stop this idiocy of talking down renewables and talking up fossil fuels. People are lying when they say it is better to have more fossil fuels...that drilling for oil is all that is needed. It is utter crap. When I hear politicians talking up fossil fuels, I know that the fossil fuel lobbyists have been whispering in their ears. I know that hefty donations are made to political parties to keep fossil fuels going. That is outrageous! These companies are big business. Of course they don't want us to stop drilling for oil. They MAKE MONEY! Politicians are lying to you about fossil fuels and renewables - like Reform UK and the Conservatives. It is shameful. Money over the planet and the people!

For people who don't believe humans can alter the Climate know that there are the equivalent of 9 billion cars worth of CO2 being dumped into the atmosphere at all times, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

@TonyJuniper I was living in the UK and marketing back in NY @ 110f I was in jacket & tie walking from client to client - not noticing the heat. Its all about what you are used to. As a teenager, school jumpers/sweaters stayed on under 100f - included in class which was hotter then outside

This is about a thousand more people than died in the attack on the World Trade Centre in 2001, yet hardly a mention in news bulletins. Extreme heat is becoming so frequent to the point where it’s no longer noteworthy, while some say we should slow down on emissions reductions…

@ChrisGloninger Chris, Im a humble engineer. I can tell you with 100% certainty that Silicon based solar is the most coal & co2 intensive energy available today Rooftop solar is far far far worse than solar farms So first & foremost, everybody who supposedly cares should scream to ban silicon

I'm a meteorologist. Let me kill this one personally. Weather and climate are different math problems. Weather is chaos... tiny errors blow up, so we top out around 10 days. Climate is statistics... the boundaries of the system under known physics. I can't tell you if it'll rain in Boston three Tuesdays from now. I can tell you July will beat January every single year. One is a coin flip. The other is knowing 1,000 flips land near 500. And "a degree or two is nothing"? The last ice age, a mile of ice over Chicago, was only ~6°C colder than today. We're ~1.4°C warmer in 170 years. That's not modest. That's geologically violent. The physics doesn't care about your wind turbine aesthetics.
Peter Clack@PeterDClack

Climate has been weaponized to drive a global agenda—orchestrated by the United Nations and backed by a projected $147 trillion in forced structural reinvestment (McKinsey Global, 2022). The physical reality of this shift involves up to 1.3 million wind turbines and eight billion solar panels (so far). They are darkening our most iconic land and seascapes, blighting rural farmlands, and cutting massive corridors through pristine native forests. By definition, climate is simply the study of regional weather patterns over a standard 30-year period. Over time, however, it has transformed into a convenient metaphor for a broader ideological struggle. The underlying reality is that no one can accurately predict a climate crisis decades into the future, when meteorologists struggle with a three-day forecast. Yet, a computer-model 'scenario' has been elevated into the defining crisis of our time. The evidence for this doomsday narrative is threadbare. While global temperatures have risen by roughly 1.4 degrees since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution in 1769 - when the world’s population was just one billion - that modest warming has already occurred, and humanity has thrived alongside it. Even the IPCC has quietly backed away from its extreme five-degree doomsday scenarios. To claim a degree or two represents an existential threat ignores human history; we are an adaptable species that thrives from the equator to the Arctic. Yet this erratic metric now underpins a multi-decade campaign that is actively dismantling Western economies. The consequences are no longer theoretical. The real-world cost is arriving daily—leaving Western society to face its highest electricity prices in history.
