2025 is on track to be the UK’s hottest year on record, according to the Met Office, "beating the previous record set in 2022. All five of the UK’s hottest years have occurred since 2000, as the UN prepares to announce new global temperature figures." Jim Dale, Senior Meteorologist on LBC News.
“For every one unit of energy you put in, you get two units out.” Air conditioning, effectively heat pump technology, will be vital as extreme heat becomes more common. Climate advisers say 9 in 10 UK homes aren’t built for rising heat, and fewer than 5% have air conditioning. @eciu.net
“An 11th-hour policy shift away from heat pumps would devastate UK heating engineers and installers, with a budget cut to heat-pump subsidies having dire consequences for the industry,” - Aadil Qureshi, CEO of Heat Geek, the UK’s largest community of independent heating engineers, on Times Radio.

“There has been a huge amount of progress since 2015 in terms of the amount of solar that has been installed, and the amount of finance that has been flowing that way.” says Dr Nina Seega, Director of the Centre for Sustainable Finance at the CISL on LBC News.
"Most of the increase in peoples bills in the UK when it comes to electricity are from the added cost of gas, just over two thirds of the bill." - @janrosenow.bsky.social explains a new report by UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC) to @lbcnews.bsky.social
For four months of 2025, more than half of UK power came from renewables. ⚡️ "This new analysis underlines just how central renewables have become," BBC News' climate editor Justin Rowlatt told Today.
"Plants are flowering at a time nobody would've expected." 💐 Climate change is likely why more than 600 species flowered at New Year, rather than the 20 to 30 observed decades ago. Louise Marsh from @bsbibotany.bsky.social speaking to BBC 5 live about #NewYearPlantHunt.
'It's all just a huge disincentive to EVs' ⚡️🚘 The government should be promoting the uptake of electric vehicles, not penalising drivers, says EV expert and automotive journalist Vicky Parrott on @bbc5live.bsky.social.

How's things in "Bako", as Fred Durst called Bakersfield in the song, with Korn, "All in the Family". I'm in Redding this week, where it's not so hot, but warming, about to go another hike by this crystal, blue creek, and drink my fill!
Inflation is Causing Beef 🥊🥩 Prices up. Paychecks… not so much. That’s inflation. Here’s what it actually means, why it happens, and how it quietly drains everyday people. Full episode in bio. Learn the words. Laugh at the system. #Politicalwordsforadults #Inflation #Comedy
2/3 Galați [pronounced Galatsi] is Romania's 8th biggest city, and also a port on the Danube. As we've seen in the statement, two people suffered minor injuries, so it could have been a lot worse. This is the moment the Russian UAV hit the apartment block in Romania.
May 28, 2026 Cocke County, Tennessee, USA Severe flash flooding struck Cocke County, Tennessee, USA on the morning of May 28. The worst impacts occurred in the Parrottsville, Bybee, and Centerview areas, where heavy rains caused small streams and rivers to overflow their banks.
This country has accepted a generation of kids being trained to make themselves harder to kill instead of addressing gun violence. It’s appalling. In Michigan, we delivered, passing sweeping gun safety reforms that have saved lives: ✅Secure Storage ✅Red Flag Laws ✅Universal Background Checks
Roe v. Wade was never codified. That's why it was overturned. I will fight for abortion rights that can't be taken away. Healthcare, bodily autonomy, and reproductive freedom are a human right. #MattDodsonforUSSenate #VoteNM #TooPissedOffToBeBoughtOff #AbortionIsHealthcare

Highly recommended vid! "The government's being run by Stephen Miller, who is a white supremacist. Close to the election he'd ask me for retweets almost every day.. He sent me a text 'We need to get the white men out to vote. This will be white boy November revenge of the Kens.' I have those texts."
Trump and Stephen Miller built up a paramilitary force at DHS that they essentially promised immunity, and set it loose on American communities. I'm not going to write a blank check for a federal agency that refuses to distinguish between American citizens and violent criminals.
Another Ukrainian man is being volunteered to die at the front for Brussels & Zelensky. A military man trying to stop the kidnapping was pepper-sprayed. 😡
