Former #Google CEO Tells Congress That 99 Percent of All #Electricity Will Be Used to #Power Superintelligent AI
https://futurism.com/google-ceo-congress-electricity-ai-superintelligence
I'd say that is a very good indicator to limit or even ban the use of #AI for reasons of human survival as a species on this planet. The sooner, the better. 
It's only a poll but it shows clearly that governments who are still celebrating #fossilFuels today have not heard the bang.

A huge wastewater treatment plant serving Duluth and surrounding communities has installed a new system to generate electricity from the gasses captured during the sewage treatment process, part of a growing trend to harness renewable energy from waste. https://www.mprnews.org/story/2025/04/19/duluth-wastewater-plant-captures-methane-to-produce-heat-power
The boat's domestic batteries are aging and need a bit of relief once the sun sets. Solar panels don't work by starlight. 
The freezer has a couple of bottles of ice, to keep things chilled overnight, when the fridge dial gets adjusted from 2 to ½. One ice bottle moves to the fridge at night.
About once a week there's a forgotten thawing bottle of ice in the fridge all day instead of refreezing in the freezer.

Obviously, this is totally not a huge for profit utility company teeing off a Trump "I did that, I'm the greatest" PR blurb....

Kenya boosts electricity access from 37% to 79% between 2013 and 2023.
Access has more than doubled in ten years, with urban areas reaching 100% coverage and nine million rural residents gaining connections.
One in five Kenyan households now uses off-grid solar systems, and renewable sources including geothermal, hydro, wind, and solar generate 90% of Kenya's electricity, positioning the nation to achieve universal access by 2030. #Kenya #Africa #electricity #renewables #solar #environment
