  1. 'consumers are using cleaner energy and bringing down their bills at a time when the cost of living is a constant concern...But such a massive, ungovernable influx of energy carries risks, too—the world’s power infrastructure was not designed for solar self-generation—and investment, pricing models, and even the security of supply could be affected as a result'

    Oil Things Must Pass
    ==================

    [Verse 1]
    We’re destroying Earth's natural greenery
    No place left, for the kids to play
    They choke on toxic fumes, while coughing
    It doesn’t have to be this way.

    [Chorus]
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away

    [Verse 2]
    Our governments are always warring.
    They say, 'Killing keeps gas price at bay!"
    Poor people die. Rich men profit.
    I just don’t believe what they say!

    [Chorus]
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away

    [Bridge]
    Oil things must pass
    No human beings can last
    So we must switch to solar power now, without delay

    [Verse 3]
    Sunlight doesn’t cost a penny.
    Solar batteries get recharged all day.
    Planet Earth heated up, despite all warnings.
    Let’s cool it, before it’s too late.

    [Chorus]
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away

  18. So, Uber asked me if removing UberX (the standard option) would make me sad. They wanted to know if I'd choose a different option or leave the platform entirely.

    In all honesty, that would allow only the newer, eco-friendly vehicles to run around, so that's something. The prices aren't any higher, especially if you choose the wait&save option.

    The downside, from what I've noticed, is that (all???) EVs have ad displays in the back. Look, I want to do my part and reduce CO₂ emissions, but I absolutely detest ads. Plus, I'm paying for my ride. At least make them free, you know, like those awful mobile games that people play in the bathroom.

  19. Japanese Power Plant Turns Saltwater Into Electricity and It’s a Glimpse Into The Future

    Fukuoka District Waterworks Agency Scientists believe saltwater could become a reliable source of renewable energy through a process known as osmosis. Japan has now taken a major step in that direction. Earlier this month, Japan officially launched its first osmotic power plant in Fukuoka, a large city to the west of Tokyo. That makes Japan the second country in the world to bet on osmotic power, after Denmark. Fukuoka’s plant is expected to generate about 880,000 kilowatt hours of […]

  20. Instead of condemning them for what they really are -- death machines on wheels -- the auto and oil industries have elevated ice cars to status symbol, to be desired, to be worshipped. And everyone fell for it. Well, not everyone, of course.

    The sad part is that it's actually everyone, entire countries paying the price for the diabolical existence of ice cars.

  22. Could this simple idea revolutionise #Scottish #energy industry?

    The idea is to co-locate specially designed “Tide-Torrent” #turbines on the #sea floor alongside #offshore #wind farms.

    Water moving past wind turbine foundations gains speed, McAnally said, suggesting smaller #tidal generators could be positioned to capture that extra energy.

    #FirstNations chiefs shouldn’t be duped by the ‘#nuclear-is-green' deception

    by William Eric Altvater, February 6, 2025

    "Some First Nation Chiefs are victims of shenanigans, not unlike the swindle behind the purchase of Manhattan. The federal government needs the support of #Indigenous peoples to expand nuclear power generation capacity in #Canada.

    "For millennia, the cornerstones of the Indigenous people that inhabit Turtle Island, now known as North America, held all that is essential to life, in reverence. Every decision considered the next 7 generations. These cornerstones are crumbling.

    "Newcomers, armed with the #Colonizing tool, 'The #DoctrineOfDiscovery' and their mentality of superiority, invaded the land of those they called 'Savages,' almost totally exterminating #Skicinuwok, People of The Earth.

    "Determined to bestow Christianity and civility to this wild untamed population, old growth forests were cut, rivers and streams were dammed to power sawmills, roads and railroads were built, bridges erected. All to create an infrastructure for #capitalism, a system to make a #profit, that morphed into #greed, a word of foreign root. This unbridled desire for progress has ruined what was once called Paradise.

    "Now most water is not fit to drink, clean air is scarce, #deforestation is rampant, #biodiversity loss out of control, plants genetically modified, food manufactured with unpronounceable chemicals, caged fish starved of oxygen while being fed chicken feathers and pig parts, cancer cases in the millions, the list goes on.

    "As the population increased over this continent the available sources for power generation have not been able to satisfy the insatiable desires of the 'bigger, better, faster, more is never enough' mentality. Some have finally acknowledged the fact that #FossilFuels are not the golden egg they were once deemed to be.

    "So-called '#GreenEnergy' is required to slow the blind drive to extinction of man; man, who is considered by some to be the most intelligent creature to ever roam Earth. Unfortunately, the lure of riches and the corruption of self-serving purposes have led man to stray from practices that nurture everything required to sustain life on this tiny blue marble floating through the universe.

    "#NuclearPower is now being touted as being 'Green.' It is not. Big money corporations are lobbying legislators to convince them and the public that it is. They are also lobbying to convince the public that they should foot the bill in the form of taxes and rate hikes, for a process that pollutes from the day it starts. Water is life. As soon as #uranium is mined from the earth it begins to contaminate the water in surrounding aquifers.

    "When the uranium is processed sufficiently, it is used as fuel for reactors where it generates heat while delivering electricity, not just for essential needs, but also for many things once considered luxuries. This fission generated heat is then dumped into nearby waters where it kills thousands, if not millions of small beings that form the basis of life itself.

    "After this radioactive fuel is depleted, it is stored in various containers where it will stay radioactive for eons. Indigenous #Grandmothers have labelled it 'Forever Dangerous.'

    "The power generated during the fission process benefits only those who exist today as the process occurs, not those born tomorrow or next week or next month. All the #RadioactiveWaste and the inherent danger it creates is left to future generations, kicking the can down the road.

    "What better place to dump this waste than in an area with a population that has witnessed Newcomers enrich themselves for hundreds of years? Yes, what better place than a population that has been targeted for assimilation, suffered theft of lands, witnessed the taking of naturally bestowed rights? A population that has been subjected to racial Indian Act legislation essentially stripping away all that sustained this population for thousands of years.

    "Yes, let us give the Indians some more shiny beads and trinkets so that they willingly agree to care for our radioactive garbage. How do we do this? Let’s talk to the Chief and Council. Let’s wine and dine them. Let’s give them some money, take them to dinner, buy some drinks and make them feel all festive and most of all make them think we are looking out for their best interests. Some Chiefs have taken the bait.

    "Egregious as it may be, this is exactly what is happening in some Indigenous communities contrary to the will of the majority. Elected Chiefs are continuing the deception as they are blinded and professing the 'Nuclear is Green' mantra. They have lost connection with the Spirit of Ancestors and traditional values. They need to have a serious introspection and realize that looking forward, we need only look back at what has sustained us to this point in time. We need not do any more than that."

  31. From 2020: Why #Aboriginal people have little say over energy projects on their land

    Published: August 10, 2020
    by Lilly O'Neill, et al.

    "Renewable energy projects come with a caveat: most #TraditionalOwners in #Australia have little legal say over them.

    - The #NativeTitleAct does not allow traditional owners to veto developments proposed for their land.

    - The National Native Title Tribunal — which rules on disputes between native title holders and #companies — has sided with native title holders only three times, and with companies 126 times (of which 55 had conditions attached).

    - #RioTinto’s agreement for the area including #JuukanGorge reportedly “gagged” traditional owners from objecting to any activities by the company, which then destroyed the 46,000-year-old rock shelters.
