By the end of 2028, #Fortescue expects to complete its Pilbara green grid with 1.2 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity, more than 600 MW of wind generation, and 4-5 gigawatt hours (GWh) of battery energy storage. #Goodnews #climate

#Fortescue expects to have 290 megawatts (MW) of installed renewable capacity by early next year, meaning it will be able to meet the the fixed energy requirements of its ore processing facilities, enabling daytime “green processing” across its Pilbara operations. #Goodnews #Climate

@parismarx.com Fortescue aka Andrew Forrest using AI for "climate action" is a page right out of the Bill Gates book of being a billionaire.
Like Gates, Forrest has a foundation, and he's doing more harm than good.

#Fortescue is showing the future to the rest of #Australia:
Colonialism + Racism: sued by First Nations
Sexism: underpaying female staff
Unpaid taxes.
Untold damage from fossil fuel emissions.
Wealth inequality.
Pay enough PR money, and you too can have all this forgotten.

@kimcrawley Sure enough, the billionaire Andrew Forrest behind Fortescue is using AI to eliminate burning fossil fuels. How does that work?

Andrew Forrest has been "fast tracking" the elimination of fossil fuels since 2022. He has failed to do so. If anything, the opposite. He's a carbon billionaire.
