'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.

"In just about two days, we had temperatures going up by 10 degrees." Heat spikes, temperatures surging by 10°C in just two days are becoming more common in the UK. Dr Akshay Deoras, Senior Research Scientist at the University of Reading explains on the Today programme.

“Politicians consistently underestimate public support for climate action.” New research finds large perception gaps, with MPs often mistaking majority public support for minority support across climate policies, even when costs are clear. Study led by Dr Lisa Maria Tanase, University of Cambridge

🌡️"We have a minimum temperature in the workplace, and yet we're becoming a warmer country." The UK should enforce a maximum working temperature, Baroness Brown of the government's climate watchdog, @theCCCuk says. She adds extreme heat could mean 10,000 heat-related fatalities in future summers.

"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.

Congestion Charge changes were introduced today. Rising from £15 to £18 for standard vehicles, £13.50 for EV's & £9 for E-Vans from Jan 2. Campaigners say it doesn’t give enough support to small business and charities. Oliver Lord, Head of UK & Strategy at Clean Cities explains on LBC News.

A data centre under your sink or in your shed pays your heating bills. “We pay for the electricity to run the modules, and the computing power heats your water and home. The excess heat can replace a boiler or heat pump, cutting your energy costs.” Travis Theune, CEO, Thermify. thermify.cloud

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

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 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.

Didn't these effers ever get taught about Constitutional rights? In order to be a law enforcement officer, you should be tested on people's rights every flippin year & the test should be hard, like passing the fking bar. There should also be psych tests administered it annually.

Trump's tariffs cost the average family $1,700 last year, with higher prices on everything from groceries to electronics, clothes, and shipping. Now, the corporations that passed on higher costs from tariffs to consumers are set to get the refunds, leaving consumers empty-handed.
