2025 declared year of the octopus. 🐙 While octopus blooms in the UK are a "natural occurrence" that happen every few decades, the explosion in numbers this year has been "exacerbated" by warming seas, says @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social Ruth Williams on the BBC's Today programme.

Only 5% of UK homes have air conditioning, says CCC. With record May temperatures, campaigners are calling for air con in hospitals, schools and care homes to protect the vulnerable. Air-to-air heat pumps heat and cool, one technology, two jobs. @richardlowes.bsky.social @regassistproj.bsky.social

"If you can produce your own energy, you bring down your bill." Homegrown energy is the best way to insulate ourselves from global fossil fuel shocks, as has happened after the Iran conflict, says Electrify Britain CEO Camilla Born on GB News.

"The fat cats are doing absolutely nothing." Rubbish from fast food is a growing problem, but the firms responsible are doing nothing, litter champion Gill Thomas says. Volunteers in Stroud have used AI to map hotspots and track the worst offending brands, identifying 750,000 pieces of litter.

“Your home is now more likely to be flooded than burgled.” A new report from Aviva shows 1 in 9 UK homes are built in a flood-prone area. “Checking the planning application for your home and understanding its flood risk is essential.” Liz Mitchell, Director of Flood Assist gives her advice.

EU Renewables Overtake Fossil Fuels A new Ember report finds wind and solar generated more electricity than fossils in the EU in 2025, reaching a record 30% share, Solar output rose 20% in a year. “This is the start of a new era of solar,” - Sonia Dunlop, CEO of the Global Solar Council on BBC News

"Plug-in solar can be a cheap, quick, effective way of reducing your electricity bills," businessman and clean energy expert Chris Goodall told Times Radio. The government will relax rules on the self-installed panels, which can save up to £110 off consumer bills according to officials.

What is a “Zero Bills” home? Phil and Jackie Coates turned their 1970s house into one with no energy bills by adding insulation, solar panels, a heat pump, and a smart tariff. They generate twice the power they need. 100,000 'Zero Bills' homes are expected in the UK by 2030

“Record 8.4GW of offshore wind secured, the largest seen in Europe, bringing £22bn investment into the UK. The Government says it will cut reliance on gas and lower bills long-term, though electricity costs may rise in the next few years.” – Simon Evans @carbonbrief.org @drsimevans.carbonbrief.org

More bad news from Trump’s economy. At 3.8%, inflation is at its highest level in ~3 years. Republicans need to start working with Dems to put an end to Trump’s inflation-fueling war in Iran & start lowering costs for working families.
