A message to grocery store barons: You don’t get to pocket all the profits, send CEO compensation soaring, erode the quality of jobs of the people making the profits and not expect to pay for that treatment one day. This is that day! #canlab

In the summer of 1980, this crew celebrated completion of pressure tube installation on Pickering Unit 5. In December it reached 40 years of safe operation running on those tubes, due to be replaced in the next 10 years. Let's do this! #Pickering2075 #CANDU 🇨🇦 #NuclearEnergy

Two Belgian reactors confirmed for another 10 years! After months of negotiations, an agreement was successfully reached between the Belgian government & ENGIE. Doel 4 & Tigange 3 were planned for shutdown in November 2025, but now they’re being prepared to extend operations!

Greg Abbott signed legislation that prohibits cities from requiring employers to give water breaks to construction workers. This nullified laws that were passed to prevent workers from heat exhaustion during extreme Texas summers. Folks, this is the GOP's vision for America.

Split atoms not wood.
Biomass is the SCAM that we all fell for Biomass is not carbon neutral, sustainable or green 🪵 Let's debunk the myth of biomass as a climate friendly energy source, and explore why even 'green' countries like Denmark may not be as eco-friendly as they seem. A thread 🧵 (1/17)
