And the evidence against nuclear being practical/realistic solution for Australia continues….#renewables #EnergyTransition #nuclearfarce @PeterDutton_MP
'Citizens Advice says #SizewellC #nuclear costs should not be paid with energy bill hikes.'
'Ministers have been urged by Citizens Advice to protect consumers from a hike in household energy bills to pay for the proposed Sizewell C power station, amid international tensions over the rising costs of nuclear projects.'
'The UK’s largest independent advice provider has raised concerns that the project in Suffolk may offer “poor value for money” and called for greater clarity on its funding, in a letter to the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.'
'Estimates of the cost of Sizewell C vary wildy – from £20bn to £44bn – and a process to find international investors to join the UK government and France’s #EDF is ongoing.'

🌍 CLIMATE MYTH: “Volcanoes emit more CO₂ than humans.”
FACT: They don’t.
Human activities emit roughly 100× more CO₂ than all volcanoes combined each year.
And volcanic emissions don’t explain the modern rise in atmospheric CO₂ — the carbon’s chemical fingerprint and the declining amount of oxygen in the atmosphere both point to fossil fuels.
🌋 ≠ the cause of modern warming.

My friend Jonathan Fuller took this picture of ducks in a dried up pond on Wallasea Island, Essex.
It’s heartbreaking.
I will never ever forgive the media, politicians, the oil industry and the moronic fools on social media who have been complicit in this climate crisis.

China cut net crude oil imports by 30% in Q2 2026 without a meaningful decline in economic activity.
💻 In our latest #EnergyExplained blog, CGEP scholar @Erica_Downs_ and Michal Meidan find that reduced stockpiling accounted for more than half of the decline, with lower refinery runs making up the rest.

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline.
“Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet.*
Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming.**
Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”***
* in 1937, Guy Callendar published a paper showing that the world had already warmed over the last 50 years due to human emissions what he called “carbonic acid“ – what we now call CO2 – from burning fossil fuels
** If you are wondering, “how could humans be causing more than 100% of the warming?”
— it’s because, according to natural factors, the earth should be cooling right now.
So our emissions are offsetting that cooling AND causing all of the observed warming.

New York based investment giant backs Sydney-based firm’s plan to roll out #solar, storage and #microgrid solutions across Australia’s #commercial and industrial sector.. reneweconomy.com.au/us-equit…
If the Congo can do it…so can Australia “We need to stop emissions by electrifying everything and providing the electricity with Wind, Water and Solar (WWS), which includes onshore wind, solar photovoltaics, concentrated solar power, geothermal electricity, small hydroelectricity, and large hydroelectricity”
Seven countries now generate 100% of their electricity from renewable energy: buff.ly/BsB17aj
It can be done. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

NEW CHART: Trump's "big beautiful bill" & other efforts to dismantle climate policy means the US will add an extra 7bn tonnes of emissions to the atmosphere from now until 2030, compared to meeting its former climate pledge under the Paris Agreement 🫠
