#USAShitShow: an agreement from 200+ countries to “phase out” fossil fuels… But these are the same leaders who agreed to “phase down” coal-fired plants in 2021 only for global coal usage to increase to profit from rising energy demand. Saudi Arabian clarify that the transition would not affect oil exports; meanwhile, US oil production is ramping up and Europe is investing in liquified natural gas.

#FreeTrade: Kerry, “facts" show the world cannot "get to net-zero by 2050 with some nuclear."
Jacobson: Stupidest policy proposal possible.
Science: the position taken by both the nuclear power industry itself and those who would otherwise like to slow the transition to a truly renewable energy system.
#ReadingBetweenTheLines: Biden, “the reality of” maintaining mass murder capability over third world resources & protect oil and gas shipping lanes.

It's not about a head-to-head between Bard and Bing at all. The battleground will be data, integration, and Augmented Reality everywhere. Also, find an interesting implicit take on copyright: "interpretation".

#ReadingBetweenTheLines: #VisionZero fails because the bureaucracy loves it golden handcuffs from the #fossilfuel industry, co-opts advocates, puts lipstick on a pig.

Thanks for explaining your situation, #diplomat. You are so clever, diplomat.
