Any increase in the temperature of the water used to cool nuclear power plants can also lead to reductions in their power output due to decreasing thermal efficiency.</p><p>"This report sets out the adaptation strategies that can be effectively implemented to improve the resilience of existing plants as well as any new installations. The costs of adaptation to climate change can vary significantly depending on the type of reactor, the climate change issues affecting them, as well as the applicable regulations and standards. However, while these adaptation costs can, in some cases, be significant, the costs of inaction – both directly at the plant level and indirectly for the electricity system – are likely to be even higher."</p><p><a href="https://www.oecd-nea.org/jcms/pl_61802/climate-change-assessment-of-the-vulnerability-of-nuclear-power-plants-and-approaches-for-their-adaptation?details=true" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">oecd-nea.org/jcms/pl_61802/cli</span><span class="invisible">mate-change-assessment-of-the-vulnerability-of-nuclear-power-plants-and-approaches-for-their-adaptation?details=true</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RethinkNotRestart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RethinkNotRestart</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukesForAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukesForAI</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearPower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearPower</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearWaste" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearWaste</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CostOverruns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CostOverruns</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearPowerCorruptionAndLies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearPowerCorruptionAndLies</span></a></p>
O=C=O<p>Flames to floods: how Europe’s devastating wildfires are fuelling its next climate crisis</p><p>Fire-scorched land is less able to handle climate-driven downpours.</p><p>In January 2024, Nasa reported that <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> is intensifying <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/wildfire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildfire</span></a> conditions, noting that the frequency of the most extreme <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/wildfires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildfires</span></a> had more than doubled over the past two decades. While some of this is driven by natural weather variability, human-induced warming is clearly playing a major role. Decades of rising temperatures combined with longer and more severe <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/droughts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>droughts</span></a> have created ideal conditions for wildfires to ignite and spread. </p><p>This year, another brutal <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Mediterranean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mediterranean</span></a> wildfire season is unfolding right before our eyes, with numerous active wildfire fronts across the region. As of July 22 2025, 237153 hectares have burned in the <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EU</span></a> – an increase of nearly 78% from the same period last year.
