Interesting #Radiolab on #electricity cattle, a follow up on a #Zetland piece.
I remain a bit sceptical about the idea of stray voltage affecting cows. It seems very implausible and there are surely other factors to consider. But a quick web search gives lots of hits.
It may be a thing and it may also be a case of mass hysteria among farmers (the mobile phone towers and cancer scare also sprang to mind). And it might be a third effect. Or all three?
But I think it's going to be something we hear more of as the #GreenTransition gets going...

I am considering using more accurate (ie non-0) kgCO2e/kWh (lifetime amortised) #emissionsFactors for some #GB #FUELINST low-carbon

i wonder if power from Site C and the various upgrades to other BC Hydro dams of the past few years is the reason why this fake Trump "emergency" order is neutered.
That and the massive rise of both home and grid scale solar and wind in Califonia and the PNW.
