Nat Bullard is a self-described expert on clean energy and climate finance. He puts together this annual presentation on “the state of decarbonization told with climate, capital markets, technology, and sector data.” It’s very detailed and full of interesting data. […]
This is my first time learning about this. The panels provide shade for the crops, which is useful in hot weather or during droughts. It seems the trade-off is the ease of harvest. “Agrivoltaics – the practice of using land […]
“Like on-land carbon capture technologies, which can extract carbon from our air, marine carbon capture harvests the molecules from seawater or the air above. Carbon causes problems for both: Excess carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere creates a kind of […]
“I was really disappointed when I found out Javier Milei was going to the WEF summit. Until I got a few minutes into his speech and he is just telling them that everything they are doing is wrong and fucked […]
This was published as a commentary in Nature. It’s titled “Degrowth can work — here’s how science can help.” My opinion is that there’s clearly no requirement to understand economics before submitting for publication. One of their ideas: “This requires cancelling […]
“The quantum computer revolution may be further off and more limited than many have been led to believe. That’s the message coming from a small but vocal set of prominent skeptics in and around the emerging quantum computing industry.” ~ learn more
Venture investor Ryan McEntush writes that the tides are turning for nuclear energy after a long hiatus from building new reactors. Not only does it seem that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is speeding up its review process, but also a […]
The point here is pro-nuclear, not anti-renewables. In 1975, China’s Banqiao Dam collapsed, “forming a wall of water six meters high and twelve kilometers wide moving up to fifty kilometers per hour. The towering deluge eventually collapsed 62 more dams, […]
This plant is built for Google in Nevada. “Where most geothermal projects need to seek out areas where highly-fractured, highly-permeable hot rocks are easy to get to, the Nevada plant, built in partnership with Fervo, is a pilot to prove […]
“The RePlastic project focused on using pyrolysis for chemical recycling. During the process, plastic waste is heated to high temperatures in a nitrogen-filled furnace, triggering a splitting of the chemical components of the plastic materials. Because there is no oxygen […]
