All worry is laid to waste.
The endorphins rushing wild from the freezing water,
the music pounding through my body,
the caffeine,
the fucking ducks and the God-roiling sky
– no what-ifs,
no yeah-buts,
no what-abouts, 
no caveats, at all.
I am made happy,
and that happiness is entire and incontestable.
And all the way home, I go
— to my beautiful waking wife
– on this, the best day ever.
Love, Nick Cave

A report released today by the David Suzuki Foundation, "Running on Fumes: B.C. LNG’s Overhyped Promises, Risky Future and Public Costs,” shows that the #LNG industry exhibits a pattern of grand promises, under-delivery and hidden costs.
The real winners are foreign multinationals, not British Columbians. Offshored profits, few jobs, higher energy costs and ignored environm…

It’s apparent to anyone with a bit of education in technological history that this sort of thing must be possible. We have waste streams with higher concentrations of key elements than the "ore" we derive them from.
This is part of why I religiously recycle plastics even though right now they don’t really get recycled. At some point, the piles of unrecycled plastics will be a better raw material for new plastics than the dregs of petroleum we have left.

"The results speak for themselves. Today, Uruguay produces nearly 99% of its electricity from renewable sources, with only a small fraction—roughly 1%–3%—coming from flexible thermal plants, such as those powered by natural gas. They are used only when hydroelectric power cannot fully cover periods when wind and solar energy are low. The energy mix is diverse: while hydropower accounts for 45%, wind can contribute up to 35% of total electricity, and biomass—once considered a waste probl…

While the world debates climate action, Chinese cities are already doing it.
Shenzhen leads with massive EV adoption and vehicle-to-grid tech. Wuhan built "sponge cities" that absorb floodwater naturally. Dalian is scaling hydrogen energy. Guangzhou and Qingdao are tackling food waste and carbon management.
These aren't pilot programs—they're blueprints other cities can follow.
