Did you know the UK gov allows bottom trawling in many UK Marine Protected Areas (MPAs)?
It’s like letting a bulldozer destroy a national park.

This might be the closest thing to pure good news on the climate front I've seen for a long time.
NEW | Renewable capacity additions grew 29% annually since 2023 – outpacing the 21% growth needed to triple global renewables by 2030

Gas sets the price of our electricity >80% of the time. It's expensive gas which has driven the cost of living crisis.
While ordinary people struggled the oil and gas companies saw their profits rise by hundreds of millions of $.
