Ugh, this SCOTUS case really worries me. Trump just gutted the endangerment finding and federal climate legislation, and now it seems quite possible that SCOTUS might say states can’t do anything about it (i.e. sue the fossil fuel companies)https://thehill.com/newsletters/energy-environment/5751603-scotus-to-consider-tossing-climate-suit/#uspol

@bascule the implied threat that they'll set everything on fire if prices don't go down? ... oh, because solar is the future. Yeah, that's what I meant.

A concept from atmospheric science I keep looping on:The Clausius-Clapeyron relation says that the saturation vapor pressure of water increases exponentially with temperature, allowing for roughly 7% more water vapor per 1 degree C of warming. Water vapor is also a greenhouse gas, making this a positive feedback loop.More water vapor in the atmosphere means less liquid water on the surface, so this effect leads to continental drying, which is happening at a rapid pace.#climatecrisis

Mike Johnson, the racist piece of shit who supports “great replacement theory”, just denied the request for civil rights leader Jesse Jackson to lie in honor in the Capitolhttps://apnews.com/article/jesse-jackson-funeral-plans-capitol-rotunda-2910a8ff9df4531f9fa4ed76404a9887#uspol

@bascule To be fair, if they aren't fuelled then it's just shipping building materials around. SMRs are pretty big, aren't they, despite the name? Like the size of a house, instead of the size of a housing estate for normal reactors. Surely they couldn't fly them around fully-assembled?
