In a First, Renewables Beat Natural Gas on U.S. Grid Last Month It’s just one month, but it’s a sign of where the U.S. is headed as renewable energy—namely solar—surges onto the grid.

In a First, Renewables Beat Natural Gas on U.S. Grid Last Month

Even as the Trump administration creates obstacles to building renewables, a key pair of facts will hold: The U.S. needs more electricity, and renewables are the easiest way to get it.

Instead of taking policy suggestions from the Opposition Leader, PM Carney should address the root cause of rising gas prices: swelling profit margins of the petroleum industry

A real solution would be to put a windfall tax on those profits & price caps on domestically-produced petroleum products

"Incredibly some argue that the correct response to the current crisis is to double-down on the cause of the turmoil – fossil fuels. This defies economic logic and basic common sense."

"Petrostate dynamics take hold not through sudden shifts, but through gradual normalization. Decisions that once would have been contested become accepted. In petrostates, oil and gas slowly poison our politics."

Gas price spikes are supercharging Big Oil profits As conflict in the Middle East pushes oil prices higher, Canadians are once again paying more at the pump while fossil fuel companies capture massive windfall profits. Drawing on past price shocks, Ja...

War-driven price shocks are delivering billions -- $90 billion -- in windfall profits to oil companies while ordinary Canadians absorb the costs

Trying to capture carbon from fossil power plants has been a disaster - most projects have failed, the few that haven't don't meet their targets

Even if it were to work, it would raise bills dramatically: adding CCS to US gas plants could double the cost of power

Think the energy transition isn't happening?

Think again: Renewables surged to almost half of global electricity capacity in 2025

AI data centres can warm surrounding areas by up to 9.1°C Hundreds of millions of people live close enough to data centres used to power AI to feel warmer average temperatures in their local area

So data centers will consume tons of energy, raising household bills, and water - and now they'll also warm surrounding areas by up to 9.1°C

But who cares, since they'll make tech bros even more wealthy

BREAKING: Israel's Knesset has passed a law to execute Palestinian detainees.
Death by hanging. Mandatory sentencing. No pardon. 90 days to carry out.

It applies through military courts with a 96% conviction rate. It does not apply to Israelis.

Israel is an apartheid state.

That apartheid now officially includes the death penalty.

Israel has long engaged in mass extrajudicial executions of Palestinians.

It's now official state policy.

BREAKING: Israel Approves Extreme Death Penalty Law Targeting Only Palestinians

Monday’s vote in the Knesset to impose a one-sided death penalty bill on Palestinians will further cement Israel’s system of apartheid, reports @minnahfarshad.bsky.social.

Israel passed a law allowing the death penalty exclusively for Palestinians. It was written by the fascist Ben Gvir.
