Dear #Marc_Carney #Doug_Ford #Danielle_Smith ,
Kindly take your #pipeline projects, AND SHOVE 'EM UP YOUR ASS!
I'm sick and tired of breathing #smoke from forest fires every summer for the past 5 years. While every other country is investing in #renewable_energy and ditching fossil fuels, you dumb fucks are still subsidizing massive amounts of #taxpayet_money into fossil fuel to keep the industry alive. Soon, NOBODY will be using fossil fuels for energy.
GET WITH THE PROGRAM! It's economical and environmental suicide to continue investing in fossil fuels. -

Samuel Gilbert: Under a Texas sun, agrivoltaics offer farmers a new way to make money: Solar grazing helps farmers feed their flocks while the expanding solar industry provides more clean energy to the grid.
"At the Azure Sky solar and storage project in Haskell County, #Texas, 700,000 photovoltaic panels stretch in uniform rows across the desert landscape, shimmering under a relentless summer sun. Beneath the panels, hundreds of Dorper sheep graze on Bermuda and Johnson grasses, driven there by two border collies named Bucky and Johnny."
“The most existential threat to our industry is not global pandemics, it’s not who is in the White House, it’s not supply chain issues or the war in Ukraine,” said Matt Beasley, chief commercial officer for Silicon Ranch Corp., a solar energy company. “It’s local opposition, all centered around land-use questions.”

Cosy, quiet and efficient: how New York is pioneering eco-friendly apartments: An electric-powered complex debuts with hundreds of ‘passive’ homes
"It was the midst of a July heatwave, with humidity sticky in the air. Phoebe Saldana sat in the colorful plaza of her East Harlem housing complex, watching her two young daughters ride scooters and climb on workout equipment.
They were getting some playtime outside before returning to the cool respite of their two-bedroom apartment. To Saldana, 37, the air conditioning was a godsend.
'We were living with no air conditioner for a long time,' said Saldana, who moved in from a Brooklyn shelter. 'It’s amazing. I, like, never turn it off.'
In the winter, she said, her apartment stays warm, without cold drafts. Inside, she can barely hear the trains chugging along the elevated tracks running next to the building.
'It’s very comfortable to live here. It’s peaceful,' she said."

One of the big attractions of Australia for investors is the expectation that the govt will not meddle in stuff. Investors look at the coalition policy and say “f**k it, we might as well invest in Khazikstan”. #renewable_energy https://www.inkl.com/a/klEzXnsBNYy

Part 4 in my wee history series about the Galloway Hydro Scheme.
The Glenlochar Barrage was the first part of the Galloway Hydro Scheme to begin construction. Controlling the flow of water from Loch Ken into the Dee, the Barrage proved a little controversial when it was first built. -
given that rural communities don’t like powerlines. Let’s transport ammonia across the country (make it in the north, ship south). Pretty soon we will have direct electric generation with ammonia as a fuel. Load it into trucks and run the trucks continuously day and night through the areas that object to powerlines. I am searching for someone to invest in this. I have had enough of these rural wankers. #renewable_energy #auspol

#renewable_energy yet another reason why nuclear won't attract investment. We are coming up with lots of other fuel based generators that don't have the fuel disposal problems: https://www.ecoticias.com/en/ammonia-fuel-hydrogen-engine/3167/

And here is the third instalment of my new wee #history #video series about the Galloway Hydro Scheme.
Clatteringshaws Dam is the largest dam on the Galloway Hydro Scheme. It feeds Glenlee Power Station via the Glenlee Tunnel, which was cut through the hard rock of the Galloway landscape in the most dangerous, and expensive, construction of the entire scheme.

Here's the second wee #history in a series about The Galloway Hydro Scheme.
We're moving on downstream from Loch Doon to Kendoon, Carsfad and Earlstoun stations and their lochs.
During the tough times of the early 1930s, there was no shortage of men prepared to risk the hard and hazardous conditions to work on the building of the Hydro Scheme.
The problem for them was keeping their jobs#video #history #Scotland #renewable_energy #engineering #Galloway #electricity

New video tonight. Another one filmed at Loch Doon, but this time it's the first part in a series about the Galloway Hydro Scheme.
This is a phone shot I took of the Rhins of Kells from the car.
