New green battery tech - from red state Alabama

Doesn't require cooling, a big downside of lithium ion batteries.
Also cheaper to produce.

From inventor of Super Soaker.
He's also Tuskegee Institute engineer involved with stealth bomber, bunch of other stuff.

Cannot make this stuff up!

For nearly 50 years #BigOil slow-walked the world to disaster by lying about the danger of Climate Change & creating denial/doubt about the science & solutions. Our latest show digs in to a new report about how they're STILL doing it to our children in our schools

Demand is growing very fast. If you look at the whole chain of production and distribution #FossilFuels are incredibly wastefull or INefficient.
Electricity, on the other hand, is far far more efficient. [And far more cost-effective]
What we must do is to electrify our energy use.
Espeically heating [and cooling] and transport.

Getting to 100% clean energy isn’t going to happen, but not for the reason you might think. And getting most of the way there is going to be easier than it first appears…"

"Only negotiations we have internationally are who gets to pollute and how much. That's what the #ParisAgreement is about: #emissions targets & pollution. But who gets to PRODUCE & how much are critical negotiations that have to happen between countries so we have fairness & a management of decline"

China's launching a Green Marshall Plan!

They're set to dominate the green energy sector by opening export markets, boosting the Reminbi, and becoming a major lender. China's growing its global influence by providing the capital, tech, and know-how for clean power in developing nations.

"We've grown up with this idea that more #FossilFuels means more prosperity which couldn't be further from the truth today. Fossil fuels are [becoming] the greatest cause of premature death on the planet. Heat waves, air pollution, toxicity in our daily lives, extreme weather & climate change."

Red states moving on #cleanenergy

#Florida added more #solar in 2024 than any other state - except Texas.

FL also added more rooftop residential solar than any other state but CA.
True for last 5 years.

Industry expects FL will stay #2 in solar for both in 2025 installations.

FL law forbids "climate change" in state policies - but #extremeweather is pounding state, so people want resilient power anyway.
