Energy is always in the news. It’s inextricably linked with emissions and the level or absence of emissions determines the outcome of the climate crisis. Nevertheless, it’s time to talk about something else as well. OK, I did promise to tell you about space energy, so we’ll look at that.  I’m also going to look again at Deep Adaptation from Jem Bendell, at the pressures in the UK to reject Net Zero, news of the continuing weather crisis in Australia, Finland’s new nuclear station (sorry - that’s another energy story) and hydropower by truck (that’s energy, too). And there’s a fabulous city of the future planned for the desert.
