  1. The south of the DRC supplies about 70% of the world's cobalt. This region is rich in copper, cobalt, and uranium. #Cobalt and #uranium are often found in the same rocks.

    The authors recommend cargo inspections, health monitoring for workers, and mandatory treatments to isolate uranium from water and populations.

  6. At 24 years of age, Leopold Aschenbrenner aka "Nostradamus of AI", managed to lose nearly four times as much as the former champion of trading failure, Howie Hubler, lost on his $9 billion bet on mortgage backed securities.

    "His spectacular failure reveals how eager Silicon Valley is to invest its billions in the dubious hands of a kid who confidently proclaims what he doesn’t actually know."

  11. @joewynne Let's compare these 800 GW of capacity added for Renewable Energies to capacity added for Nuclear Energy:

    "In 2025, 3 GW of new nuclear capacity came online, with China, India and Russia each completing work on a new reactor. However, these additions were offset by the retirement of 3 GW of nuclear capacity [...]. In total, global nuclear capacity remained at 420 GW at the end of 2025 [...]"

  21. You can decarbonize some energy. "The book is rather about the vocabulary, the ideology, that you have behind this idea of energy transition."
    "The energy transition gives people the impression that you can have the exact same economy without fossil fuels and this is false."

    "What matters is not the number of people but the way they live."
    "One third of the global emissions is the global food system. […] You need to talk about reducing certain consumption" (a calque from French meaning some type of resource spending).

    "The energy transition debate we need to have"
    A conversation between Akshat Rathi and historian Jean-Baptiste Fressoz: omny.fm/shows/zero/the-energy- (podcast and transcript) 🧵

  22. Meta To Expand Energy Supply With 100MW of U.S. Solar

    Meta has entered into a $100 million agreement with solar developer Silicon Ranch to build a 100-megawatt solar farm in South Carolina. The project will power Meta’s upcoming $800 million AI data center in the state, with both facilities slated to begin operations in 2027. According to the companies, most of the equipment for the solar installation will be manufactured in the United States. This marks the 18th collaboration between Meta and Silicon Ranch, a partnership that has already […]

  23. The PM gestures while his government manages money movers.

    In top article: Burnham: "We have to face up to the changing climate. I think we need a different debate about that. There’s no point denying where we are. We need to face up to it. We need more clean energy. We need to see that transition accelerate."

    In bottom article: "Andy Burnham moves to cut new EV sales targets"
    "Possible cut from 80% down to as little as 50% could add millions of tonnes of CO2 to emissions and comes amid UK heatwaves"

  24. There are "multifaceted reasons for our collective failure to bend the global emissions curve. However, a common thread that emerges across the reviewed literature is the central role of power, manifest in many forms, from a dogmatic political-economic hegemony and influential vested interests to narrow techno-economic mindsets and ideologies of control."

    "Critical to historical and ongoing carbon lock-in has been the pervasive failure in industrial, modern societies to imagine desirable ways of living that are neither wedded to the carbon economy nor dependent on narratives of progress reliant on perpetual economic growth."
    "With technocratic forms of modeling, cost-benefit analysis, and forecasting at the core of most governmental and industrial imaginaries, the future continues to be framed as open to exploitation."
    "Typically, they transfer energy consumption from fossil fuels to other energy sources, are subject to political tropes (such as interpreting energy as a national security concern), and frame the future as a focus for cost-benefit analysis and rational decision-making."

    Isak Stoddard, Kevin Anderson, Stuart Capstick, Wim Carton, Joanna Depledge, et al. (2021). "Three Decades of Climate Mitigation: Why Haven't We Bent the Global Emissions Curve?" doi.org/10.1146/annurev-enviro

  25. Maruti Suzuki is looking beyond the vehicles it sells to rethink how those vehicles are produced. The company is putting ₹561 crore into four compressed biogas facilities, turning alternative fuel into part of its manufacturing strategy.

    The move could reduce reliance on conventional energy sources while creating a use for agricultural and organic waste.

  26. How To Store Renewable Energy

    Image credit: Pramote Polyamate via Getty Images Renewable-energy storage is important to help humanity reduce its dependence on fossil fuels such as oil and coal, which produce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that cause climate change. Harnessing the power of the sun with solar panels and utilizing wind power with wind turbines are two common ways to generate renewable energy. But the sun isn't always shining and the wind isn't always blowing when we want electricity, and […]
