Two UN reports confirm the world has reached a “positive tipping point” where renewable energy—especially solar and wind—is now consistently cheaper than fossil fuels, making clean energy the most economically attractive option.

In 2024, renewables made up 92.5% of all new electricity capacity and drove 74% of global electricity growth, showing that clean energy is now the dominant force in power generation.

Global investment in renewables soared to $2 trillion last year, surpassing fossil fuel spending by nearly $800 billion—evidence that markets are aligning with climate goals.

However, the transition is still uneven: fossil fuel production continues to rise, and developing regions like Africa face barriers due to high financing costs, requiring more equitable investment to ensure a truly global energy shift.

Original Title: ~6 years ago two unacknowledged women asked Prof Larkin if it would be feasible to deter the trade in Rhino horns by using radiation injected into the inert material (keratin). He said no, but now after research there is news that a safe dose will be used and can be detected along the supply chain.

A North Carolina-based group has built free AI tools to help patients and clinics fight back against health insurance denials. It’s called Counterforce Health, and it’s turning the tables on insurers using the same tactics — automation, algorithms, and scale.

What’s amazing is this started as a small idea in Wilmington and is now helping people across the country challenge unfair denials, appeal faster, and actually get results. AI doesn’t have to serve corporations — it can serve people, too.

If anyone’s curious, there’s a short ABC11 story about how it works:

Quoting the text from the source:

Norway is leading the way in the transition from petrol to electric cars. Almost every newcar sold in Norway is electric. Hardly anyone buys a combustion engine car anymore.

However, data on new car sales doesn’t tell us about the distribution of cars on the road. There is a lag between sales and stocks, because people can hold on to their existing petrol and diesel cars for as much as a decade or more.

But after years of electric cars dominating the market, one-third of cars in use in Norway are now electric. The chart shows this growth.

The share was only 12% five years earlier, which shows that this transition can happen relatively quickly.

As the global leader, Norway’s experiences can help to inform other countries on factors like charging networks, grid management, and the impacts of electric car uptake on emissions and air quality.
