That’s two of the big three sources of household emissions. There’s a third one though: which is heating and cooling.

I’d look at getting those off of fossil fuels next, and doing what you can to get electricity from renewables.

That’s the top 10% in the United States. They’re talking about the top 10% in the world.

Only after the Golden Toilet in the White House flushes

It requires a bit of critical thinking and knowing your sources. Eg telling when you’re looking at a puff piece written to gain access vs a serious investigation.

What definitely can’t work is just trusting what you see on social media.

You’re welcome. I try to provide global coverage, but both the search tools and my personal network tend to be a bit US-focused.

And that’s how it starts. You add enough wind and solar that they can sometimes provide more electricity than people use. Curtailment orders keep them from causing a problem, but that means wasting otherwise free electricity. So people start installing utility-scale batteries, which soak up that excess, and release it during the morning and evening peaks in net demand. You install even more wind and solar, and people do even more batteries, displacing routine overnight fossil fuel use. Even more wind and solar, and it starts making sense to install low-efficiency long-duration storage, and fossil fuel use disappears completely and permanently.

Probably not. They’re by design only accepting a few thousand people, and he wants half of them to get a placebo. Probably easier to go to Mexico or Canada to just get the vaccine

For what it is worth, utility-scale batteries have been the next step in added storage capacity after pumped hydroelectric is built out

Always been about states right to enforce slavery. Nothing else.

Sure, but the context is that the US dedicates almost half its corn crop to ethanol that’s blended with gasoline. Vehicle electrification + solar panels will free up a huge amount of agricultural land.

It’s not so much “obstructions” as that it requires both earned expertise and hard work to create stuff.

Destruction is always fast and easy. Creating takes real effort

From what I see on social media, they had largely not written this year’s report yet

Sorry, but we’re not likely to spend much time talking about that kind of ice in c/climate

It’s not technically hard to verify if you care to do that, and consistent with what I’ve seen about patterns of reach.

I see that you already got a useful answer to this cross posted comment

There are a ton of people who believed Musk’s words, thinking he wasn’t a fascist, for whom words are a means of manipulation, rather than a means of conveying meaning

Like a lot of the NYT, there isn’t another source. I recommend restarting your browser and/or device and making sure Javascript is enabled

It’s a neologism, rather like “inflammible” because “negative” is an awful word to use for marketing.

Read the article. It’s pretty clear that they’re looking at both podcasts and video content and at multiple platforms.
