When you read this article, this is the only passing reference to net-zero:
"a trustee of the Climate Group, a charity that aims for a net-zero world by 2050, from 2010 until 2016"

Energy independence is consistently one of the most powerful pro-Net Zero arguments among voters.
They back renewables over fossil fuel as the solution and it's not particularly close.
Bit baffled that Govt is not hammering this more loudly in light of Iran. Pushing at an open door.
Your regular reminder that the UK's North Sea gas production is down by two-thirds since 2000 and is set to drop by another 97% by 2050 – even with new licensing rounds it would fall by 95%

Anyone know why BBC News is still formally tied with CBS News, given the Bari Weiss/Ellison/Paramount take over?
Since 2017, the two orgs have had a formal deal to "share video, editorial content, and additional newsgathering resources".
That seems pretty inappropriate now?

NEW - I sat down with Ma Jun, one of China's most well-known environmentalists, in Belem to discuss the country's energy transition
We talked about using data to accelerate climate action, EU-China cooperation, the future of coal and the role of civil society in China's climate policy
