Very sad to hear that Paul Brown is ill. He has been one of the most enterprising and important UK environmental reporters during my whole career, from the Thatcher days when I was at FoE working on acid rain and the ozone hole.

Heavy-industry sectors like cement have long struggled to decarbonise because their processes require very high temperatures.
That’s why the new Rondo Energy heat-battery project in Thailand is such a big deal - powering a cement plant with low-carbon steam.

A very good article. Unfortunately I am not convinced that politicians rushing to actualise the claims of the current leaders of the LLM-based chatbot version of ‘AI’ have the faintest awareness of this. Ie language does not = intelligence. Hollow promises. @ajpendleton.bsky.social
Cutting-edge research shows language is not the same as intelligence. The entire AI bubble is built on ignoring it.

New hawk-cuckoo species described from Borneo
A previously unknown species of hawk-cuckoo has been described from Borneo. The newly recognised taxa was previously considered a population of Dark Hawk-Cuckoo, which is found in Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia. Bornean birds principally differ from that species (and the closely related Large Hawk-Cuckoo) by their unique three-syllabled main song.
