Human-caused climate change made the hot and dry conditions responsible for Spain's record-sized inferno 20 times more likely to happen and it doubled the chances of extreme fire conditions for the flames in France, scientists at World Weather Attribution calculated in a rapid analysis Thursday, conducted while fires were still burning.

wunnerful potential https://cleantechnica.com/2026/07/25/flywheel-energy-storage-us-qnetic-factory-wind-solar-power/ as soon as i read "flywheel" i leaped to negative assumptions that this is a silly idea, due to rapid rundown from air-friction on the inertial rotor, & mechanical friction in the journal or rolling-element bearings. then i read on & began smiling, coz instead they're talking vacuum chambers & magnetic bearings. tis terribly exciting to see if this innovation develops! yet, wot do we have instead here in straya? a cowardly fossilfool-owned govt still approving coal & gas, & paying the fossilfools for the privilege humans -- so smart, and so stupid #ClimateCrisis #NonLinear #TippingPoints #PositiveFeedbackLoops #FossilFools #RenewableEnergy #ChangeTheSystem #StateCapture #RightToProtest #Biodiversity #WeAreTotallyFscked #Misanthropy #Karma #NativeForests #StopLoggingNativeForests #FsckCapitalism #CognitiveDissonance #auspol

The report #OilCompanies are worried about: #ClimateAttribution science New report says our ability to tie weather damages to #ClimateChange is improving. John Timmer – Jul 17, 2026 Excerpt: "Climate change is being driven largely by the greenhouse gases we’ve pumped into the atmosphere, which trap more of the Sun’s energy there. That added energy increases the odds of extreme events: longer, more intense heat waves and droughts, interspersed with excessive precipitation. But these sorts of events have happened in the past—how can we tell if any given weather disaster has been made more likely by the climate? "It’s a question with implications for everything from building codes to disaster preparedness. And there’s some good news: According to a report released by the US National Academies of Science on Thursday, the field of climate attribution is growing increasingly mature and can answer some questions for us with far greater confidence than it could just a decade ago. The report also notes that there are still important limits and suggests steps to address them. "Overall, this makes it clear that climate attribution is normal, mainstream science. And the #FossilFuel industry views that as a problem, as it could make it easier to hold companies liable for damages. This has triggered a backlash that has Republicans in Congress and state governments threatening the National Academies’ funding."

RE: https://mstdn.social/@markhburton/116940020417795138 The level of capture of our political class by the fossil fuel industry is truly astonishing. (And deeply concerning) #FossilFools #Oiligarchy

  1. uk, & europe, once again burning & melting from the human-created climate crisis, having recently being battered & flooded from same root cause
  2. uk labour jettisoned another suboptimal pm, & are now about to have yet another
  3. said proto-pm chooses to literally & metaphorically chuck more fossilfool onto the fire
  4. uk needs to vote out labour & elect majority green party govt

jfc, you just can't make up this shit 🙄🤦‍♀️🤬🖕

yay, Swifties! ​:purple_heart:https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07-13/tasmanian-swift-parrot-breeding-and-forestry-management/106856312 if i had my druthers, & the power to do it, i would snap my fingers & cause every single person associated with native forest logging to drop down dead, on the spot. yes it's brutal, but these humans are wantonly destroying species, so fuck them #auspol #taspol #ClimateCrisis #NonLinear #TippingPoints #PositiveFeedbackLoops #FossilFools #RenewableEnergy #ChangeTheSystem #StateCapture #RightToProtest #Biodiversity #WeAreTotallyFscked #Misanthropy #Karma #NativeForests #StopLoggingNativeForests #FsckCapitalism #CognitiveDissonance

Another day, another sign of the apocalypse. #Kamloops smells like a campfire this morning, thanks to fires burning in the area. Meanwhile Carney, Smith, Eby, Ford et al. are participating in perpetrating the biggest #CrimeAgainstHumanity in the history of the world. #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency #FossilFools

I just wanted to take a moment to point out that both submarine proposals hinged on massive investments into our fossil fuel industry. For the Germans it means buying a crap-ton of our LNG and building an export terminal at Churchill to export tar sands bitumen through the arctic. #CDNPoli #PetroState #FossilFools

RE: https://mstdn.ca/@thetyee/116800264213086219 #SameAsItEverWas: start with promises they have no intention of ever living up to and then, once the money is spent and everyone is committed, walk back expectations and ask for regulatory carve-outs. When are we going to stop falling for this grift? #FossilFools #Oiligarchy #CDNPoli #PetroState

This pipeline thing was a con, from beginning to end. There was never going to be a ‘private proponent’. #CDNPoli #CarneyCon #FossilFools #PetroState

I should feel vindicated, because I called it pretty much right down the line. But all I feel is FUCKING PISSED! #CDNPoli #CarneyCon #FossilFools #PetroState

RE: https://bclocal.news/@national/116853866910657016 Well, would you look at that?: The proposal does not include a private sector proponent, as first reported by the Globe and Mail, but the prime minister said the Trans Mountain Corporation “will work closely with the Pembina Pipeline Corporation, who will bring its private-sector expertise and discipline to the construction and operation of the pipeline.” So much for the 4D chess hypothesis… #CDNPoli #FossilFools #WontGetFooledAgain

So New Zealand is now outsourcing the writing of its climate legislation and who and how gets to challenge it in court to the top polluters in the country. Running the country like a business, caring only about profit. All going great huh. Are we still the second best in corruption perception index? Because that seems bonkers to me now.

And then threatening journalists who dare ask questions about the very serious conflict of interests and perceived corruption in said legislation. Are we still a democracy? 🤔 ‘I’d be careful saying that, John,’ Luxon warns RNZ host during interview https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/360983419/id-be-careful-saying-john-luxon-warns-rnz-host-during-interview #NZPol #FossilFools

Donald Tantrump has spent around 2,000,000,000 taxpayer dollars buying back U.S. offshore wind leases and directing 'investment' (effectively subsidies) to #FossilFuels instead. Because delivery of fossil fuels through the Hormuz Strait is definitely reliable and in no way intermittent... #USpol #FossilFools #MAGA #GOP #TyrantTrump #NoKings #Corruption #IranWar #Trump https://apnews.com/article/trump-offshore-wind-energy-climate-interior-02a1fa04b750809bbe035a70256c734d
