I don’t think we’re ready for Gray at LWB
Souza is right there…
Mine is to be delivered today, a week and a half after they received my old one

Britain needs to think beyond net zero and discuss what it does about tackling the "overshoot" of the world's 1.5C goal, says Jim Skea, chair of the IPCC

Even in such an underperforming team, he’s been arguably the worst performer
Could be Gray in midfield and Palhinha as defensive RB in the 4-2-3-1? Potential to change shape within game without changing personnel, which is interesting…
Think it’s a mistake to omit Bissouma
Think maybe we’re planning to replace both Frank & Lange, so spending big this window didn’t make sense from that perspective

NEW Q&A: What UK’s record auction for offshore wind REALLY means for bills and clean power by 2030
In which Molly Lempriere and I dig into the details in search of nuanced answers, while knocking some of the most misleading commentary on the head
www.carbonbrief.org/...
There does seem to be at least a causal mechanism: we keep a lot of bodies deeper, inside the box, rather than pressuring the shooters quickly. Not saying it’s all that, though - probably variance on top
Good set of results on offshore wind auction contracts – the DESNZ team should be praised for balancing the need to deliver a lot of new capacity with the need to keep prices down www.theguardian.com/environment/...
BREAKING: UK govt secures record 8.4GW of offshore wind at AR7 auction round, for average £91/MWh (England) / £89/MWh (Scotland), roughly a fifth below the price limit

1/ Some wild numbers have been used in the media this week for “the cost of net zero”.
Reports have said that net zero will “cost” £4.5 trillion, £7.6 trillion – the list goes on.
None of these are the cost of net zero – a quick explainer 🧵 on why
That’s all of them

Does glut = low(er) prices?
Simons at 10, ahead of Bentinha, has already been used on multiple occasions this season - vs Leeds and Villa at least…
Does this mean Brown leaving in Jan is plausible?
This could get… dangerous

You mean American soccer, right?
What’s your definition of actual fans?
Huh. In my mind, by 2019 we’d already got to well below 250 g/kWh, and it continued falling thereafter. I don’t see how the average is even 300 for that period.
Maybe it factors in upstream emissions or net imports in some way…?
