Interesting piece in the Wall St Journal about all the AI activity spurring a return to investing in energy and utilities: https://www.wsj.com/finance/stocks/ai-is-driving-the-next-industrial-revolution-wall-street-is-cashing-in-8cc1b28f
Somewhat to be inspected in the sense of investing in mining equipment for a gold rush. A question will be - will those energy companies use the added investment to move to more sustainable energy production? Or continue with just more of the same?

In the near future a mass of people are going to die in a city from the heat, and the headlines will say that "it wouldn't have been so bad except the power went out"

Heat is going to take down power systems. The power systems that could protect us from an event, will be harmed by the event.

618 people in Canada, in the mountains, in the forest, died of a heat event, on the floors of their homes, on their beds. No flames. Just a days heat.
The power stayed on, it would have been worse

The headline is 34 people were hospitalized by in flight turbulence.

-hospitalized by in flight turbulence-

Not a plane crash.

Climate induced heat has now made flight a dangerous thing to choose.

Climate cancelled a flight and injured 41.

NO!

New Energy Delayers Must Be Swept Aside.

Build our New Energy as if for WAR.


Did you know that air flight isn't possible at these temperatures?
No walking either. Changes escape plans.

AP: Heat is killing howler monkeys in Mexico... "Meanwhile, an animal park in northern Mexico confirmed it has received reports that at least a hundred parrots, bats and other animals have died, apparently of dehydration...he number is likely only a small percentage of the animals affected...There are going to be a lot of casualties to the ecosystem if we continue this trend of heat waves in the region..."

While recent reports have stated that more than half the world's largest lakes, including lakes in the Tibetan plateau, are drying up, a paper published in Nature Geoscience today (May 27) suggests that, by the end of this century, land-locked lakes on the Tibetan Plateau are set to increase exponentially, resulting in major land loss and related economic, environmental and climatic impacts

…the "most extreme event" in climate history.

I think of myself as well informed, but really I’m just well informed about American politics. I had no idea about this nightmare in Asia.

“In the capital Bangkok, authorities said the heat index Thursday was an "extremely dangerous" 125.6 degrees.”
