Larry Ellison of Oracle discussing the future of AI - a buried lede is Oracle has permits for three small modular nuclear reactors to power its new AI data centre. Imagine jurisdictions so stupid & so stuck in the 1970s to be banning nuclear energy???⚛️

Fossil fuel profits are not just numbers on a balance sheet; they represent stolen opportunities, fires that burn up homes, fumes that poison our bodies, deadly heatwaves that kill indiscriminately, and vanishing coastlines that displace whole communities: a destabilised climate that threatens the very fabric of our societies.

I must call out the flood of fossil fuel expansion we are seeing in some of the world’s wealthiest countries. In signing such a surge of new oil and gas licenses, they are signing away our future. Countries must phase-out fossil fuels – fast and fairly.

The Greens. They used to be harmless hippies and tree-huggers, all about the environment and saving forests. Well, not anymore. The Greens are a political machine with a serious plan for taking power ... and a toxic secret. It’s time Australians knew the TRUTH. The Greens are NOT who they used to be ...

Important test today of our media’s ability to report the facts about what somebody says rather than just what they say.

You know what’s faster and easier than building nuclear? Stopping energy companies from price gouging.

Nuclear energy is too slow to keep the lights on, too expensive to build, and too risky for Australia's future energy needs. This would result in higher energy bills.

Just heard a news grab that Matt Canavan would welcome several nuclear reactors in Qld. Five years ago he said he couldn't find storage of medical gloves from nuclear medicine, so where will the waste go? afr.com/companies/energy/can…
Canavan cold on the push for nuclear power

Canavan cold on the push for nuclear power

Resources Minister Matt Canavan has hosed down the prospect of nuclear power helping solve the nation's energy woes, saying the disposal of low-level radioactive waste was already a problem.

Absolutely wild that economists are going hog wild over the Future Made in Australia policy, and The Greens trying to regulate food prices, but the leader of The Nationals can say totally unhinged sovereign risk shit like this and no one bats an eyelid???
The Coalition would consider ripping up existing clean energy infrastructure contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars if it wins government, National Party leader David Littleproud has confirmed.

It’s great to be in Gladstone with Prime Minister @AlboMP to celebrate @APLNG’s 1000th cargo. Congratulations to Australia Pacific LNG’s partners - @conocophillips @originenergy and Sinopec - & the thousands of employees who made it happen.

Do you have rooftop solar? Consider passing on the benefits than poor folks who can’t access it!
CoPower (@Co_Power_) profile pictureCoPower@Co_Power_17 Apr 2024
We've opened up a program for those with Solar PV to nominate to pass on credit to those without solar so we can open up the social benefits of the transition to more of our members. Check the blog on our website for more.
