Meanwhile in Spain, the wind from Ciaran has whipped up wildfires in Spain which has had drought. Hundreds have been evacuated in the Valencia region.
Not at Six Sigma quality yet. Fail.
Indeed.

With core OPEC+ cartel members Russia and Saudi Arabia doing everything in their power to throttle oil output and push the price of oil higher, the US is again emerging as not only a thorn in OPEC’s side but as the marginal producer of world oil. According to EIA data, US crude oil production hit an all-time high in August, as production surpassed pre-covid levels.
US field production of crude oil reached 404.6 million barrels during the month of August, new EIA data showed, for an average of 13.05 million barrels per day, breaking the previous record US drillers set in July of 401.73 million barrels. Compared to this time last year, U.S. production is up by a total of 33 million barrels for the month. Remarkably production hit all time highs even as the number of rotary US oil rigs has slumped in the past year.

Venezuela?
Sanctions have been lifted, India sniffing around for cheaper oil to feed a thirsty market.
All the coal will be burned. All the oil will be pumped. All the gas will be extracted. All of it. No matter what.
And we will burn ourselves alive with it.

We have been that for at least twenty years.

Do you know where I can get the actual sea temperature graph as opposed to the standard deviation graph?
This seems fairly intuitive but nice that there’s a proof for it now:
Basically: proof of a correlation between changes in atmospheric temperature and the behavior of the water cycle.
i.e. Over the next 30-40 years there’s going to be rapid and currently unpredictable changes to which parts of the world get water and which parts don’t, which will have a big impact on survivability (poorer areas), livability (richer areas) and farmability (agricultural areas).

I have a pretty good idea about which parts near us are going to be missing out on water.
Yay?

So, apparently SMRs are economically non-viable vapourware, again/still. I am Jack’s lack of surprise.
