The Dept of Energy wants to store nuclear waste from California and Washington in Idaho in perpetuity.
They're calling it a "Nuclear Innovation Lifecycle Hub".
That's a fancy name for nuclear waste ☢️ dump.

Solar is the fastest energy source to scale up, as well as the cheapest to build.
Why wait 7-10 years for natural gas startups or 15-20 years for nuclear startups when we can save NYers $1B a year with the ASAP Act?
Let’s stop all the nonsense and get this done.

🗣️The 2026 #DontBankontheBomb report, shows that 301 financial institutions are heavily involved in the nuclear weapons industry. That is a 15% increase compared to previous findings. Is your bank or pension fund on the list?

An excellent reminder from @UCSUSA's - Ed Lyman:
The experimental "Natrium" reactor Bill Gates is building using your $ in Wyoming? Lacks a containment structure and can catch fire like Chernobyl ☢️🔥

I'm looking hard, but I can't find any days (let alone weeks) without any sunlight, any days w/o any wind, any days w/o any hydro, or any days w/o any geothermal
Same with last year, the year before, etc.
And no-one drilled for the wind, water, or solar
So unreliable, this WWS

💡Renewables have become the default source of least-cost new power generation. In 2023, the global weighted average cost of electricity from newly commissioned #renewable projects fell for #Solar PV by 12%, onshore wind by 3%, & for offshore wind by 7%. Learn more: irena.org/Publications/2024/…

📈 The global effort to expand #Renewables is driving unprecedented job growth. In 2023, renewables jobs grew at a record pace, but stronger policies and capacity-building are essential to ensure equitable benefits for all.

"I thought those fighting hard for peace in Gaza would deserve it."
Toshiyuki Mimaki, the Japanese anti-nuclear campaigner whose group, Nihon Hidankyo, won the Nobel Peace Prize, says he was surprised they won the award instead of people working to stop Israel’s war on Gaza.

It is really annoying that people complain about the relatively small land that wind and solar take up and not a peep about the fact that 1.24% of all U.S. land is taken up by a completely useless fuel - corn ethanol - that provides no more than 4% of energy for transportation.

I spoke today for @CNDuk at the US embassy about US nukes coming to the UK.
This is a very real threat and getting very dangerous to us.
If the UK allows the US military to site nukes at Lakenheath we become a target- no question.
'Let's not be targets but agents of peace.'
Thanks to all the London and South East CND groups who brought their banners to today's #NoUSnukes in Britain protest at the US Embassy!
