The idea that only nuclear or gas can provide "firm power" -- the last line of defense against the relentless advance of clean energy -- is going the way of the dodo. There are no arguments left. The only reason to fight progress now is corruption & raw political power.

24/7 renewables could happen sooner than you think
Grouping wind, solar, and batteries together can already be more affordable than building a coal or gas plant in prime locations, new report finds.

Congressional delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton will end her career in the US House at the age of 88, after serving 33 years in the role. One of the oldest members in the body. For grins, I pulled some data together to get a glimpse of how the age of congressional members have changed over time...
Chart showing the number of members in Congress over the age of 75, starting with the 82nd Congress in 1951. There were 12 members in this cohort in 1951. As of the last Congress, there were 54.A chart showing the minimum, maximum, and average age of US Congress members for all time. The chart shows a stead increase, with the average at 45 in the 2nd Congress (1791) up to 59 in the 118th Congress (2024)A chart that shows the number of US Congress members that belong to each of the common generational groupings, used in popular culture, across time from the 71st Congress to the 118th.

African thinking never contemplates something like “the end of the world.” That is not how we understand time. It cannot be. We understand catastrophe. We live with it. We die from it. A few survive it. We do not call it the end of the world.
