A clean peak on the evening of 13 December UTC in the #Geminids this year: the meteoroids flux per volume and time plotted vs. time from global video data, in https://globalmeteornetwork.org/flux/plots/flux_GEM_sol=256.00-266.00_year_2025_full.png from https://globalmeteornetwork.org/flux/ - the peak came right at the expected time and is matching the global radio echo data https://www5f.biglobe.ne.jp/~hro/Flash/2025/GEM/
Wunschzeit im Advent! ✨ Ab dem 7. Dezember könnt ihr wieder nach oben schauen und euch etwas wünschen, denn dann beginnt der aktivste Sternschnuppenstrom des Jahres: die Geminiden!

We are already well behind the peak of the #Geminids - as expected - according to meteor radio echo data from around the world plotted in https://www5f.biglobe.ne.jp/~hro/Flash/2025/GEM/ (the solar longitudes of 261° and 262° correspond to December 13th at 3:17 and December 14th at 2:53 UTC, respectively).
How the #Geminids are doing so far: global video data from this year in the top, the 2023-5 average below. From https://globalmeteornetwork.org/flux/ - see also https://www.imo.net/members/imo_live_shower?shower=GEM&year=2025 for visual and https://www5f.biglobe.ne.jp/~hro/Flash/2025/GEM/ for radio echo data; the plots should consolidate in a few days.
Europe just opened major funding for industrial decarbonization—clean hydrogen, net zero manufacturing, carbon capture.
Carbon removal is scaling too: 268,000 tonnes contracted in November across biochar, direct air capture, and biomass. Real projects, real revenue.

This week, public power is stepping up.
Great British Energy is targeting 15 GW of wind, solar and storage by 2030. New York's NYPA is building 5.5 GW of renewables. Bolivia launched its first Indigenous protected area with forest monitoring. Tennessee turned a former farm into Middle Fork Bottoms State Park, reconnecting floodplains to reduce flooding.
