Toilet Talk: Trump’s Ludicrous Attacks On Clean Energy
My, we just finished quite a year of Trump Tweets about clean energy!

A suite of recent onshore wind energy auctions in the European Union have highlighted the increasing importance of the technology as a contributor to the energy transition towards the EU 2030 Climate & Energy objectives.
While Jacobson’s latest Stanford study on 100% renewables by 2050 will draw fire for leaning into the Green New Deal, it strongly supports that policy.
Jacobson’s latest study carefully uses with current technologies and currently available resources for storage and transmission. The latest evidence is that there are much cheaper alternatives than his team models, underselling the potential.
100% renewables for 143 countries covering 99.7% of global energy carbon emissions is very inexpensive compared to business as usual in Jacobson’s latest.
The US is still looking at a renewable energy revolution, even though US President Donald Trump passed on (yet another) opportunity to lead at COP25.
Scottish Power is planning a major increase in onshore wind development if the UK government restores supports for such projects.
A brief decade held considerable cost-efficiency gains in wind and solar. These sustainable technologies are now more cost-effective than any other power generation technologies in general, according to Lazard. Solar and wind technologies simply make more sense.
How does one renew an area devastated by nuclear waste? I think of brilliant Kirusowa’s film Dreams. One of the dreams depicts the horror and abyss after the fallout of a nuclear accident.
Indeed, in real life, there are farmlands in Japan that are ruined, land that cannot be cultivated anymore. The Nikkei Asian Review reports mountainous areas where population outflows continue.
20 kilometers off the coast of Viana do Castello, Portugal, is about to be the new home to the largest floating wind turbine in the world, an 8.4-megawatt (MW) ABS-classed offshore wind turbine. This is continental Europe’s first large-scale floating wind farm. A belief is that this renewable installation is ushering in the Golden Era of wind, especially offshore wind.
