This is seismic news for fisheries scientists. Northern cod is *the* iconic symbol of total fisheries collapse due to overfishing (and other factors) *and* the iconic symbol of a complete failure to recover for decades afterwards. This is like announcing the complete recovery of bison on land.

Who said offshore wind turbines were bad for sea life? Researchers described the turbine foundations as functioning as sustained reef habitat for marine resources, a role that once belonged only to natural rock formations and purpose-built artificial reefs. www.ecoportal.net/en/divers-we...

Renewables now dominate new power capacity worldwide. In 2005 they were 28% of additions. They passed half in 2012. Since 2019, never below three quarters. Yes, this is capacity not generation. It shows what gets built. That’s the point. Data @irena-official.bsky.social

The IEA says global oil demand will drop 420,000 barrels per day in 2026. At the beginning of the year they were expecting around 1 million barrels per day of demand growth this year. Meanwhile, electric vehicles of all types are selling fast and creating more future demand destruction.
