time to update the old Australian Installed solar via PM chart. Albabese has got it down to 15%PA from 180%PA during the Rudd Gillard Terms global growth is current running at 31% PA (last 3 years according to OurWorldInData)
chart of aust solar PV growth with time.  Color coded to each term of prime minister. shows strong grown during the rudd glllard years (180% PA) , strongly supressed via abbot-turnbill-morrison (31%) with Albanese term currently experiencing only 15%PA growth

by "the energy transition is inevitable" do you mean? either we . accommodate the laws of physics and how they impact the environment's ability to sustain us or the laws of physics impact the ability of the environment to sustain us its going to happen either way ???

What Ukraine brings to the table is a mastery in modern asymmetric conflict. A mastery that they could, if not fully occupied defending themselves, assist the US in the middle east. Russia could go back to being Russia without the need for sanctions or ongoing attacks

dennis stanley @possibilize.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
It could. The conditions are clear. Russia cease all hostilities towards Ukraine. Respect Ukraine sovereign boarders and withdraw troops. Accept NATO peace keeping force stationed in Ukraine. Commit to ongoing reparations to rebuild Ukrainian infrastructure damaged by Russia during the conflict.

I'm not saying that sugarcane will save us (its < 1% of global annual GHG emmisions ) but what i am saying is that some CDR removal strategies could be implemented quite easily but would those small wins be used as an excuse not to decarbonise the energy system more generally ?

dennis stanley @possibilize.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
thing is the way we currently process it we put all that CO2 back into the atmosphere. that seams crazy to me we have an existing system of CO2 removal at scale but most facilities burn it for "cheap energy" while Australia is curtailing wind and solar

dennis stanley @possibilize.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
Sugar cane however is one of the most effective carbon fixing plants & is already processed in industrial facilities the world produces 279Million tonnes of sugarcane bagasse (waste biomass), Ajala et at 2021, that represents over 0.5GT of removed atmospheric CO2 annually .

I've wondered about this from the ruthless competitive capitalism perspective If its possible then you can be sure competitive adversaries are already poisoning each others models If you extend this possibility to external state players then it becomes a strategic risk not just a commercial one..

The whole primarily energy thing has ALWAYS been an obvious con. As it equates themal plant's INPUT energy with renewable equipment's OUTPUT energy. Compare like with like and renewable's "primary energy " share goes up 2-5 times

dennis stanley @possibilize.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
wind turbines are scarcely better extracting only about 50% of their "primary energy " (the kinetic energy in moving air) Don't even get me started about how inefficient solar PV is 😜

this is a story of everyday AUSTRALIAN'S! investing in the energy transition away from fossil fuels. DESPITE strong govt policy supporting inefficient large fossil fuel vehicles. it's a replay of what happened with solar PV and then home batteries

It helps to have a "back" to stick the patch to. A back that isn't there because we'll it's a hole. Get a flat stick (timber) a bit longer than the hole is wide tie a string round the middle. Put building adhesive on the ends poke it through the hole and stick it on from behind by putting the string

This single shipload of electric vehicles from BYD will cut Australia's annual fuel demand by at least 6 million litres This is what genuine fuel security looks like - not tanks of diesel and rushed trade deals, but cutting our exposure permanently to overseas fossil fuel supply.

An enormous ship docked in Melbourne on Sunday. Its cargo could permanently change Australian motoring
In a major flex of Chinese industrial muscle, a company has used its own purpose-built ship to respond to rampant demand from Australian consumers.

we replaced (under duress from industry) r12 with 134a (for ozone layer) then we repaced r134a with r600a (under duress for greenhouse) thing is r600a is propane/isobutane AKA Camping Gas! It was there all along just in the next isle 😜 and refrigeration efficiency has improved!!!

i expect in the 1930 they were economical because the cost of electricity was so high compared with heat producing fuels like gas or kerosene. now electricity is relatively much cheaper

electric fridges may have won out because the carnot cycle is far far more energy efficient that the absorption process used in gas fridges. in the order of 10 times more efficient (COP 0.25 vs COP 2-4 or more) www.intechopen.com/chapters/113...

Spotted this amazing stonefish whilst snorkelling at Fitzroy island (Queensland) They are ambush predators & can inflict a very painful (potentially deadly) sting from venomous spines if trodden on This one was in a very prominent location by the jetty preying on bait-fish sheltering there i guess

I understand that response. And I am just as cynical about offsets as you. We purchased the property with our own money earned from working hours. The offset thing is a local indigenous organisation trying to get funding to work on country. I'm sorry it distracted from my message

My partner & I purchased a cane farm. To reveg into lowland rainforest habitat. The actual tree planting stuff is funded by offsets . Given a big urban block is 1/4 acre is it's CHEAP about $6000 per 1/4 if people knew that would they want to help reveg via Kickstarter?

OH WOW look i'm just an Aussie with an interest in a cane farm i don't know shit about corn except for it is as good as cane at sequestering carbon. for my crew its all about the sugar and i'm like "what about the carbon sequestration potential" are you saying that's already a thing for you

oh please don't mistake me for that guy who says we can keep doing what we doing just plant some corn... no what i'm saying is when "that guy" says oh perhaps we should do some thing about climate change ... ? what plants are good ?? let me ask AI ...then CORN RUSH. my advice buy corn futures

dennis stanley @possibilize.bsky.social · 05/04/2026
yes but when we wake up to ourselves and ask how the fuck do we sort this shit out? c4 plants like sugarcane and corn. that are most efficient at turning sunlight co2 and water into solid (out of the atmosphere) biomass it will be a good time to be a corn farmer.
