We must be the inverse of the Empire: small and fast, but builders rather than burners.</p> <p> We must prioritise Functionalism over Nativism, judging species not by their passport (”Is it native?”) but by their function (”Can it hold the soil and fix nitrogen in a +3°C drought?”). We are not restoring the Holocene; we are regenerating the Anthropocene, facilitating the emergence of robust, Novel Ecosystems that can survive the new heat, even if those combinations of species have never existed together before.</p> https://theuaob.substack.com/p/systemic-stupidity-part-vi-the-legume 2026-03-16T15:50:52Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps https://theuaob.substack.com/p/the-thermodynamic-blind-spot-why 2026-03-14T18:59:04Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps <p> The ‘Best Case’ scenario is not that we succeed in ‘managing’ the transition, but we stop ‘managing’ it entirely.</p> https://theuaob.substack.com/p/the-agency-trap-why-we-must-fail 2026-03-14T18:46:46Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps <p> This article introduces concepts from my two paired working papers, ‘A Socio-Economic Thermodynamic (SETE) Model’ and ‘The Path to the Singularity’, now available for peer review.</p> https://theuaob.substack.com/p/the-gravity-of-the-situation 2026-03-14T17:43:52Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_commercial_battery_types 2026-03-13T17:46:45Z pyrho https://ln.ht/~pyrho <p> Conso API est un service gratuit et open-source permettant à tous les particuliers d’accéder aux données de consommation et production de leur compteur Linky.</p> https://conso.boris.sh/ 2026-03-09T21:55:55Z ciwchris https://ln.ht/~ciwchris https://hannahritchie.github.io/energy-use-comparisons/ 2026-03-05T05:16:24Z lounatics https://ln.ht/~lounatics https://verfassungsblog.de/energy-transition-global-south-colonialism/ 2026-02-11T01:58:16Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps https://www.vasemmistonyt.fi/2026/01/05/elaintuotannon-perusongelma-energian-ohivirtaus/ 2026-01-06T12:08:30Z 2097 https://ln.ht/~2097 <p> So-called natural gas is bad for the climate.</p> https://www.npr.org/2023/07/14/1187648553/natural-gas-can-rival-coals-climate-warming-potential-when-leaks-are-counted 2025-11-03T07:11:05Z tmfnk https://ln.ht/~tmfnk <p> The article introduces and explains the “Copper Sushi” project, which involves simulating and visualizing the complex, real-time power flow dynamics across the interconnected European electricity grid.</p> https://121gigawatts.org/copper-sushi-power-flow-european-grid/ 2025-10-24T13:36:59Z tmfnk https://ln.ht/~tmfnk <p> This Joule research article proposes an integrated electrochemical and catalytic process to efficiently convert renewable ammonia into a carbon-neutral liquid hydrocarbon fuel, offering a new route for sustainable energy production.</p> https://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(24)00429-X 2025-10-24T12:54:18Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps https://www.kauppalehti.fi/uutiset/a/ebe2a522-f253-42cb-bac2-92eb20dff079 2025-10-17T20:44:56Z 2097 https://ln.ht/~2097 <p> Some climate optimism was just what I needed today.</p> https://revealnews.org/podcast/bill-mckibben-climate-change-solar-power-renewable-energy/ 2025-10-16T10:14:25Z silas https://ln.ht/~silas <p> via: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45414215</p> https://hackaday.com/2025/09/25/vertical-solar-panels-are-out-standing/ 2025-09-30T00:48:03Z silas https://ln.ht/~silas https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/09/how-big-a-solar-battery-do-i-need-to-store-all-my-homes-electricity/ 2025-09-15T16:15:25Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps https://senecaeffect.substack.com/p/europe-implodes 2025-08-28T03:41:40Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps <p> Tilastokeskuksen ja Energiateollisuus ry:n ennakkotietojen mukaan sähkön kokonaiskulutus Suomessa oli liki 83 terawattituntia vuonna 2024 . Tämä tarkoittaa sitä, että Fingridin arvion mukaan datakeskukset voisivat kuluttaa suurimmillaan sähköä liki seitsemän terawattituntia vuodessa. Vertailun vuoksi Helsingin kaikkien kotitalouksien arvioidaan kuluttavan yhteensä yhden terawattitunnin sähköä vuodessa.</p> <p> EK:n vihreään kasvuun erikoistunut asiantuntija Janne Peljo arvioi heidän keräämiensä julkisten tietojen perusteella, että jo päätetyt investoinnit datakeskuksiin voisivat kasvattaa Suomen sähkön kulutusta noin kymmenellä prosentilla eli noin kahdeksalla terawattitunnilla.</p> <p> Jos kaikki EK:n datassa olevat datakeskushankkeet toteutuisivat, sähkön kulutuksen lisäys tällä vuosikymmenellä olisi Peljon mukaan 21 terawattitunnin luokkaa, mikä tarkoittaisi noin neljänneksen lisäystä Suomen nykyiseen sähkön käyttöön.</p> https://www.iltalehti.fi/kotimaa/a/34e0b41d-dafe-4fec-818a-a3792f449a69 2025-07-30T03:49:21Z smps https://ln.ht/~smps https://www.is.fi/taloussanomat/art-2000011061070.html 2025-07-30T03:44:47Z
