Biomass is the SCAM that we all fell for Biomass is not carbon neutral, sustainable or green 🪵 Let's debunk the myth of biomass as a climate friendly energy source, and explore why even 'green' countries like Denmark may not be as eco-friendly as they seem. A thread 🧵 (1/17)

Nuclear power plants could provide large ships with increased cargo capacity and 25 year operational lives without refueling Added benefits: no CO2, NOX, SOX or particulate Far cleaner in ports (often near major cities) than residual oil #nuclearships offshore-energy.biz/abs-study-poin…

I was asked recently why I did not write about "Brexit" anymore. My answer: Because Brexit is done. The UK is no longer a member of the EU. But...came the reply. So, here are my thoughts on how I see things. I'm not sure they'll please anyone. beergbrexit.blog/2023/08/07/sum…

What would happen if a nuclear reactor were lit on fire, dropped from 100 ft, crashed at 400mph, or intentionally blown up? NASA wanted to find out, as they planned to launch a reactor into space in the 60s (which they did!) Here’s how it went (🧶 1/n):

Today I am launching the campaign #DearGreenpeace with @letsreplanet which asks Greenpeace International to drop their opposition to nuclear energy & support young people in securing their future. Sign my petition deargreenpeace.org Why nuclear gives me hope for a better future.🧵

Rather than putting all their resources into the fight against Fossil fuels, Greenpeace International is suing the EU for including nuclear in the EU taxonomy. #DearGreenpeace stop this madness & drop your opposition to nuclear energy. Sign my petition - deargreenpeace.org

🏗️Why do we say “assembly” instead of “construction” when talking about Last Energy’s PWR-20? Because In our years of research into scaling nuclear, construction complexity was a key blocker. Our PWR-20 can be assembled on-site in only 4 months, solving a decades-long problem

Poland is starting to build a fleet of large reactors TODAY, immediately after signing contracts. They have this one great chance to bury Germany economically. Germany's economy was based on large and middle-sized industrial companies running on cheap energy. Where did that

@PattyforGaPSC Are you honestly claiming that renewables don't require extensive mining? Where is the evidence of significant human harm from the radiation doses associated with nuclear power plants – including their associated waste? With "heavy water use", I am assuming that you do not mean
