One acre of corn for ethanol = 25,000 miles in a Ford F-150. One acre of solar = 700,000 miles in an F-150 Lightning. That’s the scale of possibility Bill McKibben laid out on the Energy Capital Podcast. And here’s the kicker: with agrovoltaics, farmers can still use that land.

Solar power is the fastest-growing source of power in history ☀️ It took 8 years to grow from 100 to 1,000 TWh. Then just 3 years for the next 1,000 TWh. It will take less than 2 years to reach 3,000 TWh of annual generation.

European battery prices are plunging! Down 27% from 2022-2025 Down 28% from 2025-2027 Down 46% from 2025-2030 Cheaper & better batteries keep coming. EVs already have damaged global ICE sales and will finish off ICE likely faster than expected. transportenvironment.org/articles/ev-pr…

Scientists confirm that Big Oil’s pollution is fueling deadly heatwaves. Emissions from fossil fuel producers made recent extreme heat more likely and more intense. on.nrdc.org/46f1ldq

I had to triplecheck this because I didn't believe it... All of the world's discovered reserves of fossil fuels = the same energy as just 5 days of sunlight hitting the Earth🤯 Solar power is basically unlimited🤷‍♂️

Freedom is not about saying nice things or agreeing with those in power. It is not flattering the President of the United States. It is the right to express your point of view without government interference. We must not allow anybody to take that freedom away from us.

Subsidies endorsed by #Trump and the Republican party are artificially keeping fossil fuels viable, said Prof Michael E. Mann. "If one were truly in favor of the ‘free market’ to determine this, then fossil fuels would be disappearing even faster." independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…

As fossil fuel facilities continue to spew more and more heat-trapping greenhouse gases into the sky, they also spread massive amounts of disease-causing particulate co-pollution into the communities where they’re located — killing almost 9 million people every year. The

Israeli media confirms the reports of the horrific ways in which Greta Thunberg was treated by Israel: * She is held in a cell infested with bedbugs * Provided insufficient food and water, leading to dehydration * Developed a rash, apparently from bedbug bites * Forced to pose

99% of plastics are made from fossil fuels, including fracked gas and oil. While plastic pollution is not a single event like a pipeline leak or tanker explosion, it has been referred to as “Earth’s biggest oil spill” because of the enormous volume and presence of fossil

Clean energy has overtaken coal on the Australian grid for the first time EVER. The sparks are flying. The disruption of energy is happening right now.

NEW DATA | For the first time ever, wind and solar produced more than 50% of the UK's electricity ☀️🍃🇬🇧 🏆 In September, wind and solar generation reached a share of 50.4% Wind (7.7 TWh) and solar (1.7 TWh) also reached new absolute output records for the month of September.

Ocean heating is - literally - off the chart. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables #go100re

New data by IRENA shows: Tripling renewables & doubling energy efficiency by 2030 is within reach. But we need to pick up the pace. As António Guterres said: "We must step up, scale up & speed up the just energy transition – for everyone, everywhere." 👉bit.ly/3J8SlyX
