Right now, the entire country of Denmark is using 4.245MW of electricity.

Windmills are producing: 3.442 MW
Solar is producing: 746 MW

So if we do the math, wind + solar = 98.7% of our energy use right now is 100% renewable

Just a reminder that not only can we fix climate change, we are fixing it.

Hello geology Mastodon. Can anyone help identifying these very dense rocks from Blue Anchor beach in the southwest UK. First sample 577g relative density of around 5, not discernibly ferromagnetic. Dark bluish grey. (Contd) #geology #rocks #rock #rockidentification

Just arrived here from #Twitter. Hopefully, this will be the big #MastodonMigration.
Hopefully, my followers will find me here.
Of course, I am also looking for new contacts from the #Fediverse.
Content will stay the same: history, politics, and science.

I have over 20k of tweets on #Twitter and am looking for a way to import them here. This will take awhile, though.

Keep coming back, the posts/toots here will grow.

For one year I'm now living in a #tinyhouse . It's finally time for a room tour and review!

I've been collecting interesting examples of information organisation in history, focusing on non-Western civilisations. I came across this example of an ancient Mesopotamian spreadsheet! It records wages paid to temple workers in 1295 BCE.

Lately I was playing a bit with watercolors and landscapes and while I'm not very good at it, it's fun. And that's important, right?

Just another Glasgow tenement, complete with corner turrets. You don't really realise quite how ubiquitous turrets are of tenements in Glasgow until you start looking for them and then you realise that they're everywhere.

In #JapaneseFolklore iwana bozu are char (a type of river fish) who grow to an enormous size and transform into #yokai. They are able to shapeshift into human form, dress in Buddhist priest's robes, walk and talk. Mostly they approach people who are fishing in rivers to ask them to stop. They also talk to them about avoiding needless killing and taking only what they need. They warn people against fishing methods that cause damage such as river poisoning using Japanese pepper.

Just found this on my Phone. My daughter built this snowperson in January. I think it's the friendliest I have met so far and i can imagine a whole story around with adventures and everything.

Seen on this afternoon on 2nd Street in Old City #Philly. #Philadelphia #Flowers

Sammy has taken over the blob and she won't let anyone else sit on it.

I don't have a #cat for #caturday, so here's one of my favourite Highland Cows having lunch down the local Bramble Bar.

Cinema posters by Mancunian illustrator Tom Chantrell. So many iconic images, yet most people don't know his name. He worked from 1938 through to the 1980s. (He also did many fabulous B-movie horror and sexploitation posters).

We found those tiny kittens in the #Alhambra in #Granada. They obviously were used to visitors.

As promised, another big thread about historic #Alsatian #bonnets and #caps - and what interests me most: #lacemaking, #laces #embroidery and #perlage. Even if I find the macro function of my smartphone lousy, I take the shots because I like to know how people made these pieces. This #craft is threatened with extinction, so I like to find out more about the #stitches and construction of pieces. One table only in our #museum + #CulturalHeritage centre in #Alsace. #Histodon #costumes #fashion
