Absolutely superb interview. "United States of Amnesia" needs to be on a mug or something.

"Oil is a gift from God". And we trusted the guy who’d say that to run climate talks to save the world?? With the help of @jerometenk, get a healthy (over)dose of post-COP clarity in our most recent episode: open.spotify.com/episode/1uc…

BREAKING: the small island states & least developed countries have walked out of #CoP29. No deal is better than a bad deal, one that in some respects arguably goes back even relative to #CoP28… Huge… Will this CoP be a bigger failure even than Copenhagen? It’s now possible.

I find this article baffling on a further ground, which is the reference to 'expensive' batteries. These are the one of the few low carbon technologies deploying at scale without any support whatsoever.
You will search this article in vain for any mention of the fact climate change is a serious threat, any sort of alternative plan for cutting emissions, or any reference to recent IEA reports demonstrating how global clean tech markets are booming. thetimes.com/article/52dde42…

$150/kWh home batteries. The U.S. will have them soon.
12,5 kWh Speicher für 1.700 Euro -- 136 EUR / kWh. Kaum teurer als ein Batteriespeicher im Eigenbau. Mit einem dynamischen Tarif und günstigem Laden zu 15 Cent/kWh Preisvorteil hat sich das Ding nach 900 Zyklen oder 3-4 Jahren abbezahlt. Selbst ohne PV ein No-Brainer.

Wrote this in the teeth of the loss by Harris to Trump and what that might mean if you work in climate or climate tech. I think it's held up pretty well. news.wickedproblems.uk/p/in-…

I’m staying above a pub. I’m sure it’ll be fine.
Overheard on this train to #LabourConference24: "it's like the train to Hogwarts with all the Labour people I recognise". Anybody going to conference who fancies a pint later?

If @KamalaHarris picks @AndyBeshearKY as VP he will be the best rebuttal possible to the gaslighting on climate policy and EV jobs to Vance and Trump. In the B-bloc of today's show - watch Beshear make the case without ever saying "IRA" or "climate" youtu.be/7oEJ_q6qg6A?si=gRk4…

Not sure if @VancityReynolds actually can see the future. But if this sentiment from the movie next week wasn't designed for this moment I dunno WTF a better one could be.

I wish President Biden well and thank him for his many years of public service. This cannot have been an easy decision for him. But to take a decision that is personally difficult, but that is in the public interest, is a true sign of leadership.

Next time you hear someone object to solar farms with disingenuous blather about food security, ask them which golf course should be ploughed under first. Thanks @SolarWalburga of @SolarPowerEU for coming on the show with some facts!

The Trump assassination attempt happened just feet away from my friend @waltonjourn of @AFP - we talk to him about what he saw and what it may mean for issues like climate simply disappearing from the US election campaign. news.wickedproblems.uk/p/fro…

It was great to chat to @rdelevan earlier this week about what we might see from the new government’s climate policies. Do tune in!
Can @StarkClimate be the Gareth Southgate of UK climate tech? One week after Labour's sweep, we get into it with @Adam_Grant_Bell of @stonehaven_uk @sugandhasri of @TheSmithSchool and @NewStatesman's @meganekenyon. Listen here: open.substack.com/pub/wicked…

Election night @WickedClimate lived up to our "delightfully unhinged" rep - but we went straight past this morning's obvious #GeneralElection2024 narrative to dig into the #climatetech angles and what happens now. Thanks @BALD_VOODOO @prashantrao @BenCooke135 @GreenRupertRead @mattwinning @nick_oldridge @CMP_voice @cleantechforeu @ex_liberis @pentagrp @JDrewer @PabloOHana @LievenAnatol @ColinMahoney18 and many more for giving up some of your election night! Watch it all - including a 5-minute montage of the rise and fall of British "cleantech Conservatism" - open.substack.com/pub/wicked…
