Our January newsletter is out, featuring the latest information about the new Deep Borehole Demonstration Center, Deep Isolation's #WMSym2023 lineup (I'll be on the Women of Waste Management panel) and a new blog post about deep borehole R&D. ow.ly/6fkw50MAprC#NuclearNews
Hello! I’m at #CleantechForumNA 2023 today and tomorrow. See me on a @TerrestrialMSR panel tomorrow talking about coal-to-nuclear repowering. & just come say “Hi!” if you see me

ENS HSC warned that if #Europe is not to be left behind in the #development of #nuclearpower systems for space it must find “sustained #commitment & substantial #investment over at least 20yrs”. Europe must develop its own nuclear resilient, and affordable long-term #capabilities
Reaching UK #netzero targets won't just be great for the #environment, but for health too - highlighted in this study shared by @CarbonBrief.
😷 Less air pollution
🥶 Well-insulated homes = better health
🚴 More physical activity & healthier diets

A 2023 goal: I want to share more of my personal journey. I’m a proud pro-nuclear environmentalist. There are many of us, but we aren’t always as vocal as we could be. Let’s speak up, together. 1/6 🧵
After I returned to Berkeley my dad and I co-founded the climate science nonprofit @BerkeleyEarth. I wanted to do something about global warming, and I learned more about nuclear energy, and why my friends opposed it. (Hint: It's about the waste.). 5/6 🧵
The Center is open to members wishing to conduct (nonradioactive) testing to help advance deep borehole technologies to operational readiness. Email info@deepboreholedemo.org to learn more. 🧵
Full visibility is crucial so the Center is also assembling an independent science-driven Advisory Committee to assist in ensuring transparency and scrutiny of its work. Join us! #deepborecenter
We listened to input @ the need for R&D @ deep boreholes for nuclear waste, so I'm excited to share that a multinational nonprofit Deep Borehole Demonstration Center is launching next month @ #WMSYM2023. Email info@deepboreholedemo.org to participate. ow.ly/ghBW50MpEN3
The global temp report issued today by the climate science nonprofit I co-founded makes it clear that now, more than ever, we need to #standupfornuclear and solve nuclear waste to help it succeed.
Berkeley Earth's Temperature Report for 2022 is out!
It was in our estimation the 5th warmest year, at 1.24 °C (2.24 °F) warmer the 1850-1900 baseline.
It was a bit warmer than 2021, bit still cooled by the ongoing La Niña.

I just learned about the #StandUpForNuclear evaluation of #COP27, and how few countries mentioned nuclear as part of their efforts to stop climate change. I'm proud to be a pro-nuclear environmentalist! Spread the word that nuclear must be part of the solution. #NuclearNews
#ICYMI thoughtful insights on #nuclear waste & its cost to future generations in this piece from @runciblesolve . 🧵👇
"Upon closer examination, 🇨🇦’s management of nuclear waste offers a unique lens on the question of intergenerational responsibility."
