🇨🇦 🇦🇺 Small modular nuclear reactors proved the most expensive technology of the eight options by a large margin, with the report basing its costs on Canada's Darlington nuclear project, announced in May.$23.2 billion

The final GenCost report for 2024-2025 analysed the cost of several energy-generating technologies, including variations of coal, gas, nuclear, solar and wind projects.

Just 474 of more than 90,000 oil slicks from ships around the world were reported to authorities over a five-year period. Almost none resulted in fines or sanctions.

The investigation found that many of the oil slicks were the result of ships deliberately discharging bilge water containing oil in order to keep the vessels stable.

The widely accepted idea of 'coexistence' — the notion in conservation that people and wildlife can safely share space — has been co-opted to detrimental effects, argues wildlife biologist Ashram Shaikh. In India's Chandrapur district, where tiger attacks are routine, local authorities have failed to adapt. Instead of early-warning mechanisms,
emergency response teams or strategic fencing, interventions have been slow, often ending in both human fatalities and with big cats being tranquilized or held in captivity. A just model of coexistence "must accept that in some landscapes, coexistence may require serious ecological or social restructuring."

Climate Triumph in World’s Highest Court

[Read on Ethical Revolution]

The International Court of Justice at The Hague has ruled that countries are legally obliged to prevent harms caused by climate change.

Judges clarified the legal obligations that countries have to protect the Earth’s climate system for current and future generations.

They also clarified the legal consequences for nations that fail to do so, threatening major implications for fossil-fuel producing nations and ensuring a definite managed phase out of the production of fossil fuels.

Bizarrely taking the stance of enemies to humanity and its future generations, countries including the UK, USA and Australia tried in vain to argue against the ruling.

The case is the climax of a path that started with students in Vanuatu in 2019.

The small pacific nation is prone to cyclones, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, flooding rain and drought, the risks of which are compounded by climate change.

The court’s findings should signal a new era for climate justice and influence a wave of worldwide climate litigation.

For all you night owls out there…my latest is up on The Energy Mix website!

Grandfather of six takes on a senior advisor to Danielle Smith over his conflicts of interest and sole-sourced contracts worth nearly a half a million dollars.

It’s another ethics scandal for Smith’s government.

In calling to repeal the #endangerment finding, the draft #EPA rule does not appear to focus on the #science or try to make the case that #FossilFuels aren’t warming the planet.

Instead, it argues that the #EPA overstepped its #legal #authority under the #CleanAirAct by making a broad finding that #GreenhouseGas #emissions endanger the public welfare. It makes the case that the EPA administrator has limited power that apply only to specific circumstances.
