China leads in solar and wind power rollout, outpacing other countries. Europe excels in per capita generation. Domestic clean energy rollout and high-income country financing key. Progress evident globally. #climatechange #climatesolutions

Which countries are scaling solar and wind the fastest?
The leaderboard is quite different depending on what metric you look at.

This evening I have been listening to one of @… 's podcasts and thinking about my failure in trying to lead the village's planning working group, and about the cognitive dissonance underlying my Tricycle project. I suspect this essay will be a grim read; it's not well formed in my mind as I sit down to write.

The Point of No Return
I can't stop climate change by myself. I can't create a sustainable future for my village by myself. To do either of these things, everyone else needs to work together. But badgering people, being frustrated with people, being angry with people (and yes, I am angry — very angry — with people I know, and like, and respect, very much) doesn't motivate them to work together. My very frustration, my very sense of urgency, makes me a liability. I should stop.

Repeated Heat Waves Can Age You as Much as Smoking or Drinking
A new long-term study suggests that the more heat waves people are exposed to, the more their body’s aging process accelerates
