On social media, Christopher Nguyen gave praises for the retreat (surrender?) of Just Stop Oil, a development reported last week at MasterResource. He should know, being a UKer (Scotland).

I hope to leave a legacy that inspires others to continue this essential journey towards a lower carbon future, knowing that we’ve made a meaningful impact.” – John Berger (2023 winner)
Sunnova Energy is too broke to be bankrupt. John Berger has resigned as CEO of the company he founded in 2012. Billions of dollars of subsidy from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Department of Energy were not enough for a company engaged in legal plunder.
