This should be the most scary thing anyone living in Europe has heard for decades. But the chance of it getting much media coverage are minimal, so few will actually know.

Not an energy post, but FT has a very funny "page not found" message: answers to why the page wasn't found based on economic concepts. And you don't need a subscription to read it.

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. Want to protect the UK's local fishermen and precious marine life? Please urge the UK gov to ban all industrial fishing from UK MPAs NOW:

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 $.

26 Police Officers were injured at today's riots but only 9 people were arrested. Compare that with the peaceful Palestine Action protest where 0 Police Officers were injured but nearly 900 people were arrested. The Government has got Law Enforcement ridiculously wrong.

We always get asked, "What can I *personally* do to help address climate change?" Sadly, there hasn't been a very good answer to this question. Previous guides often treated people as monoliths, giving them a one-size-fits-all answer. But that's changed now. Enter SHIFT.

Rosebank remains the UK’s largest undeveloped oil field. In January, the Edinburgh court ruled that its approval was unlawful due to the scale of the emissions involved. The Labour government now faces a decision on whether to re-approve the project under a revised regime.

So the BBC currently has 16 stories on its lead news page about some American who nobody in the UK has ever heard of. Why? Numerous Americans get shot every day but apparently it only matters if you are are raging homophobic, misogenist, racist who promotes political violence.

I confess. When I bought my streamer I didn't intend it to become my primary music source. I intended to keep playing albums like before. But it's so convenient to just be able to sit on the sofa and choose almost any music I want. Not all technology is bad.

This is the #1 climatologist in the world: James Hansen. He’s spent 50 years studying what humans are doing to the climate. He's gone out on a limb time and time again - and been proven right. His message? It’s far worse than they’re telling you. 🧵

Reading Persepolis this jumped out at me. "When we're afraid we lose all sense of analysis and reflection. Our fear paralyses us. Besides, fear has always been the driving force behind all dictator's repression."
