🔴 NEW 🔴 The world’s largest salmon producer Mowi stands accused of a charm offensive in the Scottish Highlands that distracts from its “polluting, smelly and invasive” fish farms, say local residents and fishers, in what used to be “pristine” Highlands lochs. with @desmog.com

BBC muzzling one of its best presenters from making an excellent, wholly factual programme because heat pumps are “controversial”. An organisation badly in need of new leadership.

Farage attending the launch of a new staunch climate denial group in the UK that has taken funds from oil giant ExxonMobil ? Not particularly out of character , since Dec 2019 92% of donations to Reform UK were from fossil fuel interest groups or climate deniers , per @desmog.bsky.social .
