Plug-in solar could bring power to UK homes for £350-£800 “It’s a simple way for people without a rooftop to save on bills.” Already popular in Europe, these panels let renters generate solar power without major installation. Sonia Dunlop, @globalsolarcouncil.bsky.social @hugorifkind.bsky.social
“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.
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.
'We've reduced our energy usage by 75%' A heat pump and solar panels boosted author and retrofit guru Judith Leary Joyce's home's value by £92,000 and drastically improved the energy efficiency of her previously draughty terraced house.
Governments given 10-point plan to cut energy use but long-term issues remain “The IEA's short-term rationing and behaviour changes can shave demand by 10%, but that is just a sticking plaster. They don’t solve structural energy challenges if the conflict continues.” -@janrosenow.bsky.social on LBC
Why oil shocks still hit everything we buy “We should be very concerned, the longer the conflict lasts, the more prices will rise and ripple through the economy.” From petrol to plastics, another fossil fuel crisis shows how exposed economies remain to oil markets. - Jan Rosenow, Oxford University
The SW of England has seen rain for the same number of days as it poured in Noah's Ark, with 40 days of showers in Devon, Cornwall, and Worcestershire. ☔️
“Most other countries are going further and faster. I think we will actually see that those nationally determined contributions will be vastly outstripped because the real economy is taking over.” Tom Rivett-Carnac speaks on his optimism of COP30 almost ten years on from the Paris Climate Agreement.
"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.
"Isn't that you and me funding the IRGC?" LBC's Shelagh Fogarty asks about the Iranian demand for a toll in the Strait of Hormuz, agreed to by the US. Petras Katinas, @rusi.bsky.social fellow, says this is a "terrible outcome".

Republicans are lying to you. They are voting to roll back decades of progress on health care, energy, and the environment all so they can give giant tax breaks to billionaires and corporations. 17 million people will lose their health care while the rich get richer.

Europeans shouldn’t panic about Donald Trump’s threats toward Greenland. They should act—fast and visibly—to raise the costs of any annexation attempt. They can play “Arctic hold‘em” – with ten European cards 👇 https://bit.ly/45AQ3kr
Trump’s rollback of the EPA’s ability to regulate greenhouse gas emisions will hurt you financially. We already known his past cuts to green energy investments will cost Americans almost a million jobs in the next decade and raise Americans’ energy costs by $38 billion.

Americans can’t afford health care, child care, or groceries, but Trump is spending $1 billion a day on a war that is making no one safer.

White House counterterrorism czar Sebastian Gorka says "left-wing violence" is "in ascendance" and that it's "often transgender, anti-Christian, anti-Western civilizational violence."
The Iran war is costing 6x more than what we spend on food assistance for hungry Americans. Trump has decided we can't afford healthcare tax credits for hardworking Americans, but we can spend up to $2 billion a day dropping bombs in the Middle East.
