Around the corner

With autumn temperatures around the corner, and thunder in the distance, I made the most of this Monday morning by running ten faster kilometres and swimming in the lake, before catching the train to Halmstad for another maxed-out week of lectures. First up, multi-level governance with the second-year students. 

Meanwhile, there is great news from the United Arab Emirates, where all four reactors at the Barakah nuclear power plant are now in commercial operation with a total capacity of 5,600 MW, thirteen years after work started on the first reactor. Supplied by the Korean electricity utility KEPCO, it shows what is possible if there is a serious commitment to decarbonization (as opposed to mere war over discourse).
