Republican leaders need to speak up now, loudly and clearly, against any schemes to put Donald Trump back into the White House yet again.

As the federal Coalition continues its interminable internal debate over whether net zero emissions is even a thing, let alone a thing it can get behind, new reports have found that “real zero” is both technically feasible and economically preferable to its carbon-lite alternative in numerous hard-to-abate sectors.

While solar modules and batteries have become icons of rapid progress, most energy models are still stuck in the past. A new global analysis shows that the cost of renewable energy has fallen far faster than expected.

Someone in comments on one of my posts asked about US discussion of “hyperlocal” politics (I can’t find it now, so I’m sharing my response broadly). The term”hyperlocalism” seems to resonate with lots of Americans, but it means nothing to me. I live in Cotton Tree, a suburb* of Maroochydore, which I love. But none of my friends (mostly from my tri club, along with some older friends who’ve also moved to the Sunshine Coast) lives in the same suburb. I’ve also been involved in politics, supporting an independent campaign, but the electorate (Fairfax) covers much of the coast. Even the local council ward is too big for hyperlocal politics as I understand the term. Am I unusual, or is this a concept that doesn’t transfer to Australia? This term also has a different meaning in the US (outlying area of a city) than in Australia ( subdivision of a city or town).

114 years ago, the guns fell silent on the Western Front, marking a temporary and partial end to the Great War which began in 1914 and has continued, in one form or another, ever since. I once hoped that I would live to see a peaceful world, but that hope has faded away.
