THAT’S IT? This is what 20 years’ worth of spent nuclear fuel looks like safely stored at the former Maine Yankee nuclear plant. The plant generated 119 billion kilowatt hours of reliable power from 1972-1996, which is enough to power half a million homes each year.

New tech scales way faster than old. Solar went from 100 → 1,000 TWh in 8 years, then doubled again to 2,000 TWh by 2024—in just 3 more years. For each of the last three years, solar was the biggest source of new electricity globally. Nothing else has scaled this fast.

Fucking chilling. But this will piss off a lot of high level military generals, LOL. "After breaking fast tonight, while preparing for dinner and catching up on the flood of missed calls and messages, I heard from sources I trust. And what I heard stopped me cold. The

Good news from 🇮🇳 India!

This is the world’s wheat belt, which feeds billions. Above 30C wheat yield drops by as much as 44%. Wars, lack of water and soil degradation bring us to the end game even faster. But hey, we have data centres and AI slop

A mountain in Antarctica is fighting climate change. Not through any human intervention. Not through technology. Through geology. Scientists just found iron concentrations 10x higher than anything previously recorded on the continent. That iron is slowly travelling to the sea,
