Plastic bags, climate change, renewable energy,

WA is complex, when the pipeline was first touted it was justified on a take or pay model from various sources of industry. The pipeline was under utilised but fully funded. Some of those caught up paying for energy they weren't using started modifications and upgrades to rationalise this. About that time lng was kicking off and demand was outstripping supply. A second pipeline south was investigated but the pricing schedule was going to be free market not the artificial numbers used to get the pipeline built in the first place. Then lng revenues were better than anything domestic... similar happened on the east coast except it was power generation in the main that suffered.

I think we should know more about software development https://mlsdev.com/services/mobile-app-development and AI. In addition to all of this, many of today's app development companies offer additional services such as video creation, 3D modeling, image retouching, live coding, and more. As you can see, if your business is large enough and you have a strong desire to push the envelope, hiring an app development company that offers these additional services can really enhance your experience.

Alan Kohler: Scott Morrison, the Murdochs and the crime of the century

For Scott Morrison, last week’s Zoom summit was a chance to try out some new fudge. But it didn’t go well and he wound up looking like an inept spinner.

Skim this report:

Global Energy Review 2021 – Analysis - IEA

Global Energy Review 2021 - Analysis and key findings. A report by the International Energy Agency.

www.iea.org

“In the Faster Innovation Case, electricity generation would be about 2.5 times higher in 2050 than it is today, requiring a rate of growth equivalent to adding the entire US power sector every three years. Annual additions of renewable electricity capacity, meanwhile, would need to average around four times the current record, which was reached in 2019.”

And...

“On top of the surging demand for electricity from across different parts of the economy, a large amount of additional generation is needed for low-carbon hydrogen. The global capacity of electrolysers, which produce hydrogen from water and electricity, expands to 3 300 GW in the Sustainable Development Scenario, from 0.2 GW today. In order to produce the low-carbon hydrogen required to reach net-zero emissions, these electrolysers would consume twice the amount of electricity the People’s Republic of China generates today.”

And nowhere in the IEA report does it mention CDR requirements (800 billion tonnes of CO2).

Humanity is not heading into a promising future...

Reminds me of this about the US grid:
"The current power grid took 150 years to build. Now, to get to net-zero emissions by 2050, we have to build that amount of transmission again in the next 15 years and then build that much
more again in the 15 years after that.”

And 2050 is way too late.

 

[Haakon]

And 2050 is way too late.

2020 was way too late...

 

[Freediver]

And 2050 is way too late.

Because everybody knows that electrons produced via green tech can't travel down the same copper or through the same substations as real electricity.

Because everybody knows that electrons produced via green tech can't travel down the same copper or through the same substations as real electricity.

Building that much again isn't replacing existing infrastructure, its adding to it.

 

[hifiandmtb]

Exactly. We need to electrify what’s not electrified now. Hence grid expansion.

Humanity taking 'colossal risk' with our future: Nobels

The failure to halt climate change, the destruction of nature and other intertwined global crises poses an existential risk to humanity, ten Nobel laureates said Thursday following the first-ever Nobel Prize Summit.

The failure to halt climate change, the destruction of nature and other intertwined global crises poses an existential risk to humanity, ten Nobel laureates said Thursday following the first-ever Nobel Prize Summit.

Only profound changes in the way society produces, distributes and consumes almost everything—starting with energy—can forestall potentially catastrophic changes, they said in a joint statement, also signed by 20 other top thinkers.

"We need to reinvent our relationship with planet Earth," the statement said. "Without transformational action this decade, humanity is taking colossal risks with our common future."

Stupid Noble laureates. I'd rather listen to layperson opinion.

I liked what they had to say. I understood them and could relate. Plus most importantly they didn't challenge my way of life.
