We used computational fluid dynamics (like airplane simulations) to calculate body temperatures of sea turtles and showed places they will be in trouble from climate change.
Most proud of this because it was really hard. 🧪

Renewables
Good. Now do West Virginia, which has the most mountaintop removal coal mines in the country.
Recycling
Renewable energy companies around the world are working to recycle old solar panels and wind turbine blades, as the industry battles criticism that old equipment is piling up in landfills.

No Nukes
Nuclear power has no place in Australia’s energy transition. It’s too expensive, too slow and too dangerous. Why even go there when we have renewable energy, a much healthier alternative?

Indonesia
India
Egypt
Not quite like when Egypt hosted COP27, with a dismal environmental record.
But the country is still backsliding.
Recent COP host Egypt cuts renewable energy target by a third
Cut to green power target effectively pushes back its ambitions in sector by over a decade
Gabon
Gabon inaugurates its first large-scale solar power plant: Developer Solen SA Gabon said it aims to increase the capacity of the Ayémé project to 30 MW to power more than 300,000 homes.
Good start. Now let’s see some exponential growth.
Kuwait
New York State
NY Governor Kathy Hochul announced 23 renewable energy projects, set to deliver enough clean energy to power more than 700,000 homes across New York State, and create over 2,500 jobs.

Denial and Obstruction
Trump, Musk, Ramaswamy, the Heritage Foundation and more are Hell-bent on shutting down all of Biden’s renewable energy and EV initiatives, but it’s too late for any of that. Business is seizing on the Real MoneyTM coming in, regardless of government funding or obstruction. It’s going to be hilarious watching Musk arguing against Tesla.
