Holy sht.
Quite breathtaking story - military grade drones at Dublin airport which flew on the path Zelensky's plane took. The drones reached the flight path of his plane exactly the time it should have been there, but just missed it because Zelensky arrived ahead of schedule:
Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

Something to smile about…
“the combination of wind and solar provided 15.1% more electricity than coal during the first nine months of this year… Capacity additions by solar, wind, and battery storage continue to dramatically outpace gas, coal and nuclear.” #CleanIsCheaper

Solar output beats wind power for third straight month in US
The latest "Electric Power Monthly" report from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) shows that solar grew by 29.9% in September 2025 compared

California shut down its last coal plant last week and nobody even noticed, it made so little little difference.

Meanwhile solar is up 17% and gas is down 17% from 2024. I have a few highlights... www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/ding-dong-...
Ding dong, coal is dead
At least in California.

If someone said this happened - I wouldn’t believe it. How can a grown man be this p-whipped?
Lutnick demonstrates why he's called Nutlick: "The greatest cabinet ever for the greatest president ever. I can't be more proud of how you did it, sir. You created the greatest cabinet. It is a joy to be at this table."

We have so much catching up to do. We’re so far behind the rest of the world.

Let’s get the money out of politics - so we can start catching up!
"Once upon a time, in a land far away from Germany...
Wait. Not once upon a time, but now.
Not far away, but simply Germany's northern neighbor

In 🇩🇰, electric cars accounted for 73.7% of new car sales in November. Private individuals who purchased a new car, 91% opted for BEV."

Important information. Politics definitely affects *everything* and *everyone*. Political Neanderthals in red states have an outsized effect on climate change just because they’re Neanderthals.
This phenomenon, where red states use far more electricity per capita than blue states, has been know for 40 y, as shown by Evan Mills and Art Rosenfeld in 1987:

It is due to the lack of efficiency standards and conservation programs in red versus blue states

More than anything - I’d like to speak candidly to Mayor Mamdani and ask him what’s he thinking when sitting next to trump in front of the press listening to the stream of rehearsed lies.
There had to be a little bit of “I can’t believe I’m right here - listening to “the lies” *in person!*

Well well well.
It’s a curious thing...enduring scorn from the left without fear, yet trembling after a brief storm from the right. The balance of power reveals itself in unexpected ways.

Europe's electricity system is changing rapidly and often in places that don't make the headlines.

Look at Estonia - not that long ago and fossil fuels dominated around 90% of electricity generation.

Today solar and wind eat more and more into the share of fossil fuel-generated electricity.

Trump said he’s not going to South Africa because he doesn’t like their policies on exterminating people.

He’s referring to the imaginary “extermination” of white farmers.
I think that lie was originated around the time of “They’re eating the cats. They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the pets.”

Just because we’re on the same side - doesn’t mean I have to endure your constant negativity.
I was fine before you and I’ll be fine after you.
