|
Jan 08, 2024 · Energy Information Administration Short Term Energy Outlook December 2023:
Generation from coal-fired power plants has the sharpest decline in the forecast as a result of growingrenewable energy sources, low natural gas prices, and continuing retirements of coal-fired power plants.We forecast that coal-fired power plants will generate less in 2024 (599 billion kwh) than the combinedgeneration from solar and wind (688 billion kWh) for the first time on record.
Despite ongoing headwinds from high interest rates, supply chain snafus, and ginned-up NIMBY opposition, Renewable Energy is Rocketing in 2024.

Bad News from Lake Wobegon - Climate Crocks (Jan 05, 2024) |
|
Jan 05, 2024 · About 50 ice anglers had to be rescued from a northern Minnesota lake on New Year’s Day after a pressure ridge they were near split and left them stranded, officials said Tuesday.
The event on the Lake of the Woods is the latest of many this year thanks to vulnerable ice due to warm temperatures, according to the Department of Natural Resources.
Beltrami County Sheriff’s Office (Minnesota):
Most years, the ice would be thick enough by now for vehicles and wheelhouses, and we’d be seeing a steady procession of them heading north,” he said. “But this year isn’t 'most years,’ and the ice is changing constantly. It’s absolutely vital that anyone who heads ... Read more ...

Marine Heat Wave Crashes Alaskan Crab Fishery – Again - Climate Crocks (Jan 05, 2024) |
|
Jan 05, 2024 · The crisis first began in early 2022, after biologists discovered an estimated 10 billion crabs disappeared - a 90% plunge in the population.
“The first reaction was, is this real? You know, we looked at it and it was almost a flat line,” said Ben Daly, a research coordinator with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game.
A recent survey of the species showed little sign of a rebound.
“Environmental conditions are changing rapidly,” Daly told CBS News last year when the snow crab season was canceled for the first time ever. “We’ve seen warm conditions in the Bering Sea the last couple of years, and we’re seeing a response in ... Read more ...

Nature’s Way of Telling You: Psychedelics and Climate Awareness - Climate Crocks (Jan 05, 2024) |

Jan 05, 2024 · As one old saw goes, in the 60s, we thought computers would enslave us, and drugs would set us free.Jury still out on computers, but clearly the drug thing did not work out as hoped.Obviously psychedelics have had a major impact on every corner of the culture, and I don’t think there’s any doubt that they figured prominently in the birth of the environmental movement.
There’s been a lot of research showing positive impacts on substance abuse, depression and other negative behaviors..But I long ago gave up on the idea that psychedelics, especially in uncontrolled settings, could actually make people into, well, better people.If you’re a jerk, they can ...

Jan 05, 2024 · The world may be ending, but some really rad selfies are, like, blowing up on our feed.
Newsweek:
To the delight of Instagram aficionados around the world, Australia’s bright pink lakes may be increasing in number, thanks to climate change.
The bubblegum-pink lakes found in the south of Western Australia draw vast numbers of tourists every year. They gain their strange hues from a collection of bacteria and algae living in the water. Because of the effects of climate change, new lakes may start turning pink, while others will dry out entirely.
These lakes, which are found dotted across Western Australia and South Australia, include Lake Hillier, Hutt ... Read more ...

As Winter Sets in, European Emissions Keep Dropping as Renewables Soar - Climate Crocks (Jan 04, 2024) |
|
Jan 04, 2024 · German emissions were at their lowest point in around 70 years, as Europe’s largest economy managed to reduce its dependence on coal faster than expected, a study published Thursday showed.
Europe’s biggest economy emitted 673 million tonnes of the greenhouse gases last year, 73 million tonnes fewer than in 2022, according to the energy think tank Agora Energiewende.
The figure was at its lowest point “since the 1950s”, Agora said in a statement, while warning that Germany had work to do to further reduce its emissions.
The drop was “largely attributable to a strong decrease in coal power generation”, Agora said.

For Climate Resilience, Here’s Your Chance to Support Local, Organic Farmers - Climate Crocks (Jan 04, 2024) |
|
Jan 04, 2024 · Surviving climate change will take, among other things, a major restructuring of agriculture towards more sustainable systems.Part of that effort is going to be encouraging local, organic production. I happen to know a couple of organic growers who are working very hard at this transition, in the rural Ozark region of Arkansas, not far from Fayetteville. My son Brendan and spouse Liesel have been bootstrapping organic farms over a decade from Maine to Maui. Now they’ve settled in the Ozark, where Liesel has nearby family.
After doing a tremendous amount of work to bootstrap an organic operation, while working full time farm manager jobs at the same time, two hours away, ... Read more ...

In West Virginia, Rare Earths from Coal Waste - Climate Crocks (Jan 04, 2024) |
|
Jan 04, 2024 · West Virginia University:
Paul Ziemkiewicz has been working to clean up streams for decades, but the discovery that acid mine drainage or AMD, holds the elements used in electronics has made that effort not only noble, but potentially profitable. The most valuable - neodymium, praseodymium, terbium and dysprosium - that make high-performance magnets and others that fire up flat screen televisions, smart phones and LED lights, can be found in the leftover gunk from coal mines that turns streams orange and sterile.
Ziemkiewicz, a self-described “water guy,” said acid mine pollution is the biggest water problem in the state. Deckers Creek is a good example of the ... Read more ...

Graphs of the Day: 2023 Hottest Year in Japanese Data - Climate Crocks (Jan 02, 2024) |

Jan 02, 2024 · Its now official: 2023 was the warmest year on record in the JRA-55 dataset, at 1.43C above preindustrial levels. It beat the prior record set in 2016 by 0.14C, and continues a rapid warming trend thats seen global temperatures rise around 1C since 1970.
This year really stands out when we look at daily temperature anomalies in the JRA-55 dataset as much warmer than any prior year, particularly during the latter half of the year.
It equally stands out when we look at absolute global temperatures over time:
Here are monthly temperature anomalies for the year, showing how 2023 was far warmer than any prior year for each month of the year from June onward, with a ... Read more ...

Greenland’s Hairline Fractures Magnify Melting Mystery - Climate Crocks (Jan 02, 2024) |

Jan 02, 2024 · Alun Hubbard is one of the hardest of hard core glaciologist, and a friend that I’ve spent some time with in Greenland over the years. As the pictures richly illustrate here, he knows ice, up close and personal.
Alun Hubbard in The Conversation:
I’m striding along the steep bank of a raging white-water torrent, and even though the canyon is only about the width of a highway, the river’s flow is greater than that of London’s Thames. The deafening roar and rumble of the cascading water is incredible – a humbling reminder of the raw power of nature.

Renewables Only Getting Started - Climate Crocks (Jan 02, 2024) |
|
Jan 02, 2024 · Renewable energy already beats fossil fuels on cost globally - and according to analysts, the gap is only going to grow.
By 2030, technology improvements could slash today’s prices by a quarter for wind and by half for solar, according to the authors of a recent report from clean energy think tank RMI. (Canary Media is an independent affiliate of RMI.)
These remarkable and ongoing cost declines have made clean energy so attractive that it now outcompetes fossil fuels for new investment: 62percent of global energy investment is expected to flow to clean energy technologies this year.
That cash is helping push renewables to new heights. According to estimates from ... Read more ...

I honestly don’t know if this is real or satire. It certainly has a Monty Python skit quality to it.
This is very much like the “I own the view of your cornfield but, hell no I won’t help pay the taxes or upkeep on it” – an argument that we hear so often from anti-clean energy types.
Seriously. Compare/Contrast.

Texas is New Ground Zero for Skyrocketing Home Insurance Prices - Climate Crocks (Dec 31, 2023) |
|
Dec 31, 2023 · Dallas Morning News (Paywall):
There’s no secret that Texas has a housing affordability crisis. Too few houses built after the pandemic, high land costs and mortgage rates and burgeoning population are among key factors.
Less evident is the increasing difficulty of homeowners to obtain affordable insurance. And that’s the reason for Texas policymakers to think proactively about the repercussions of extreme weather and outdated building and land-use policies on affordability and insurability.
Insurance is all about anticipating risks, and Texas’ staggering population growth and weather patterns have added new levels of risk. Decades ago, hail would land in an empty ... Read more ...

Hertz’ EV Hiccups Look Temporary - Climate Crocks (Dec 29, 2023) |

Dec 29, 2023 · The piece here is actually informative and a lot more nuanced than the clickbait title on the thumbnail.
Early adopters run into challenges, and that’s happened here. Outlook? Hertz will be buying more EVs, and from a wider range of manufacturers. Transition continues.
We held back for almost three years before buying the eMini, did quite a bit of research though a big part of the delay was in my experience with previous new technology rollouts. We could have rushed right out and bout a Muskmobile, which would have been a mistake … as Hertz is coming to amortize. That was their mistake, buying Teslas

As the video points out, solar panels could account for as much as 80 million metric tons of material globally by 2050. Compare to 200 million tons of toxic coal waste that will accumulate in just the next few months! See my interviews with Heather Mirletz and Henry Hieslmair below.

Dec 21, 2023 · What slowdown? Build a product people want and they will buy it.
Whitehouse.gov:
EV sales have risen rapidly during this period from roughly 20,000 sales per month in 2020 and 2019 to over 90,000 per month in 2023 (Figure 7). At the start of 2023, forecasters estimated that beginning in 2026, more than one million EVs would be sold each year, and by 2030, nearly 1.8 million EVs would be sold - more than five times the forecast in 2021 (Figure 8). Actual sales have surpassed these forecasts. More than one million EVs have already been sold in 2023 - three years ahead of the projections made earlier this year and 18 years ahead of the projections made in the beginning of 2021.
