Wood Mackenzie projects that renewable energy will meet 53% of Europe’s power supply in 2030. If Europeans deliver their individual National Energy and Climate Plans, sustainable energy will command the electricity market.
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.
With Buttigieg surging, and CleanTechnica’s deep dives into the front runners (and Yang’s) plans completed, it’s time for the overview comparison, now with Mayor Pete added.
Pete Buttigieg’s climate action plan is not nearly as strong as Warren’s, and the lack of funding puts it close to the level of Biden’s at the bottom of the heap. The major saving grace is the price on carbon.

Now that the legal battle between the Trump Administration and California over emissions standards is underway, we can get a good look “under the hood” at the legal arguments and strategies each side is using.

Warren’s climate plan is a progressive patriot’s dream plan. Unions, supply management, the moonshot and WWII are all present. And jobs. Lots of jobs.
In this episode of our CleanTech Talk podcast interview series, Zach Shahan sits down with Mark Z.

They also talk about the early days of Tesla and some of Mark’s special history and connections.
