Oh, I see the government has an "AI plan".

Not a single mention of its carbon footprint. This government really doesn't understand that the number one threat we face is not from rogue AI, from economic slowdown, or from Russia, it's from climate collapse.

What is wrong with these people?

This country runs on 98 percent renewable electricity

Fifteen years ago, Uruguay was experiencing an energy crisis brought on by its reliance on fossil fuels; today, the nation produces 98 percent of its electricity from renewable sources (and even exports extra energy to neighboring countries). How did they turn things around so quickly? Uruguay's former secretary of energy, Ramón Méndez Galain, explains how they pulled off this unprecedented shift -- and shares how any other country can do the same.

Big AI companies are fighting hard to keep their energy consumption a secret. Yet, we thankfully have Open Source tools that start to estimate their climate impact.

"The effects of El Niño are already being clearly felt on the archipelago. “There have now been two major hurricane events in #Hawaii this summer, in a place where ordinarily we go a decade with none,” Swain says.

"Warming waters in the Pacific have increased the risk to Hawaii from such supercharged storms. In August, Hurricane Lala became the first hurricane to make a direct hit on Big Island since 1871."
