Waiting in hope for a mention of the #climateandnatureEmergency - but he has been getting on with the job at #DESNZ (the #StopRosebank picket knew to expect him in at 8.15 most mornings)

It takes only a moment's thought to appreciate the chaos an aggressor could cause a decade from now by deniably destroying (what will be) a large part of the UK's energy infrastructure. #DESNZ #MOD #GCHQ

Electrical 'superhighway' between Scotland and England approved The multi-billion pound link will allow Scottish renewable energy to be sent to consumers south of the border.

BRIEF THREAD

Has #DESNZ considered the possibility that building electricity superhighways from Scotland to England using UNDERSEA HVDC cables is unwise, given Russia's increasing belligerance and threats of war in Europe? Have DESNZ and #MOD discussed this recently?

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social Especially good column today! Brought to mind terrifying comment this week at #StopRosebank picket outside #DESNZ: staffer seeing it as a pro/con argument, telling me 'government is about balance' #stopfossilfuels #UKPolitics

Original post on mastodon.green

First day of #FossilFreeLondon picket outside #DESNZ went well this morning, despite the rain; some supportive staffers - and even a brief interchange with SoS #EdMilliband . Many already know the arguments to #StopRosebank; if you're a UK voter, make sure they hear from you too #UKPolitics […]

Eni among six oil companies fined €936mn over fuel price collusion Italy’s competition watchdog imposes one of biggest penalties by a national regulator in Europe

#BigOil behemoth and #HyNet #CCS partner #Eni has been fined €336million for rigging fuel prices. In 2022, it leaked 80,000 litres of oil into the #IrishSea. Eni isn't a fit and proper company, yet its pocketing huge taxpayer subsidies. Why #DESNZ?

Pouring Money Down The CO2 Drain It goes without saying that spending taxpayer money on non-jobs, that create no added value for the economy, will act as a brake on economic growth in the long run.

#CCS is a boondoggle and #DESNZ is taking a "high risk approach by backing unproven technologies with large amounts of taxpayer and consumer funding" so the fossil fuel industry can get out of jail free. #EdMiliband should #StopFundingCCS now.

Wake up @mhclgdigital.blog.gov.uk.web.brid.gy and #DESNZ, you're allowing the stove industry to pressurise the UK Govt into harming the #health of our communities in favour of profits.

Weatherwatch: sage advice 50-odd years ago on UK nuclear power still relevant Ministers might care to heed conclusions of 1976 Flowers report before they go ahead with latest energy policy plans

"the Flowers commission would be delighted that wind, solar & other renewables have largely replaced nuclear power, & be puzzled that the govt seems poised to ignore sage advice and expand nuclear energy again"

Carbon capture usage and storage – what are the plans and prospects? The government announces major investment in carbon capture technology, but is it really the right green solution for the country?

yorkshirebylines.co.uk/news/environ...
Our chair has written in @yorkshirebylines.co.uk this week about #CCUS. Why are we investing so much on a technology that promises so little?? Why are consumers picking up the tab on their bills? This feels like #CorporateTakeover of government. #DESNZ

Interesting - clearly still a lot of politics in play. Time to keep expressing our views clearly and unambiguously.

London City airport expansion given green light by ministers Climate campaigners criticise decision to allow capacity to increase from 6.5m to 9m passengers a year

This 🤯 The biggest barrier to #retrofit and #heatpumps not the format of the #EPC or #greenfinance*, it is that #GovUK, #MHCLG and #DESNZ keep telling consumers that carbon doesn’t really matter. 1/2
