China produces each year approximately 168% to 178% of the STEM graduates produced by the US and Europe combined, and the gap is widening One of my charts to the year (more charts of the year to come!)

Where the world’s electricity comes from. Looking forward to the update including 2025.

Expect to see a lot more recycling of old solar panels, and a lot more low-silver and silver-free solar cells. Silver intensity has dropped by an order of magnitude in the last 10-15 years.

On Christmas Day, after a year packed with a genocide, forever wars, an accelerating 6th mass extinction and a climate crisis which hit new peaks, a reminder of what the Nativity Scene looks like with no Palestinians, Jews, Semites, immigrants and refugees #MerryChristmas2025

Shutting down wind farms that are nearly complete makes absolutely no sense. This irrational hostility toward solar, wind, and battery storage is increasing already high electricity rates. We need more energy fueled by the cheapest sources to keep utility bills affordable.

In Norway, it took 10 years to go from 16% BEV adoption to 98%. And this was at a time when only a few rather expensive models were available. How naive must one be to believe that a ban on combustion engines in 2035 would be relevant? Nevertheless, this has been debated in the

Why can China continue to build infrastructure, yet some so-called "developed" Western countries can't build anything? Our guest writer, @Doug_rooney from Britain, shares his observations in the UK and in China. He argues it is, in fact, a governance failure in the West. "The

2025 shows we are winning the war on carbon, much slower than we should have but still: From the solar explosion to the death of coal - here are the Top 10 Good News stories Big Oil doesn't want you to see Watch Ep 97 & subscribe for the blunt facts:

On Wednesday #wind produced 45.7% of GB electricity, more than gas 17.2%, imports 17.1%, nuclear 11.7%, biomass 6.1%, solar 2.3%, *excl. non-renewable distributed generation

Two of the 5 wind farms Trump has halted are being built in NY. These projects will bring 1000’s of jobs, billions in investment, and power for 100s of thousands of homes. Killing them is absolutely bonkers. And illegal. https://t.co/cOO7mp7GNm

Coal isn’t coming back and it’s really dumb to want it to. We have way better energy technologies now: solar, nuclear, geothermal, batteries, etc We should deploy those instead.

2025 will see the warmest Chirstmas on record in many parts of the U.S., with some areas of the Central US experiencing temperatures more than 40°F (22°C) above average. The Climate 8-Ball is too busy reading some unredacted files to comment. Source: https://t.co/LZcwkm0kWF

Climate litigation expanded worldwide in 2025 and the momentum is strong going into 2026: the International Court of Justice fundamentally shifted the legal landscape with its July decision which is already being applied by domestic courts Sabin report: https://t.co/VUNFOTk3OT

Astonishing feat! US will break its record for the warmest Christmas by ~5°F! That’s remarkable. Anomalies are up to +40°F in the nation’s middle and as you can see the US has the warmest air - relative to average - in the World! H/T to @BenNollWeather

ABSOLUTE INSANITY IN ICELAND It s warmer than summer ! 19.7C Bakkagerði in the middle of the night ! ‼️nearly 10C above JULY average MOST EXTREME EVENT EVER SEEN IN WORLD CLIMATIC HISTORY Records brutalized allover the country

"US halts offshore wind projects, citing national security concerns" (insane policy, story below) Meanwhile in China (see chart, via @JessePeltan): Every 3 years, China effectively builds a brand-new "Total US Grid" worth of solar capacity. Just solar! https://t.co/niEUXU8Gb8

“The key global crops, wheat, rice and maize, are expected to see the losses to pests increase by about 46%, 19% and 31% respectively when global heating reaches 2C, the scientists said.”

Earth needs SO many solar cells. All the coal generation in the world isn't enough for China *now*, let alone China in 10 years. Then bring India to that same level. Africa. South America. Solar is essential for global abundance.

Meanwhile, an apocalypse is unfolding in slow-motion in the Arctic: >Weather: Warmest and wettest year on record >Land: 200 Alaskan rivers have turned orange as permafrost leaks toxic rust >Glaciers: Scandinavia and Svalbard just saw their largest annual ice loss ever >Scale:
