According to the head of the government's advisory body, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's actions have hindered Britain's efforts in addressing climate change. Chris Stark, who will soon step down as chief executive of the independent Climate Change Committee, expressed concerns that UK climate policy has become less ambitious, which he believes will be difficult to recover from. Sunak's decisions to delay targets for reducing emissions from vehicles and home heating have drawn criticism from environmental campaigners, despite his assertion that these measures are necessary to maintain public support. Stark emphasized the need for more action on heating homes, managing industrial emissions, and addressing issues in farming and transportation. He expressed a sense of urgency, stating that Britain is at risk of falling behind in its climate goals. In response, a government spokesperson highlighted the UK's achievements in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and setting ambitious targets for the future. https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/pm-sunak-sets-britain-back-climate-change-says-watchdog-head-2024-04-20/

The specter of new oil drilling in the North Sea looms large, cloaked in promises of energy security and economic gain. But be warned, this proposed Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill is not a lifeline; it's a reckless gamble with our planet's future and the UK's very well-being. Remember your commitment to net zero by 2050? Each new oil rig drilled becomes a monument to broken promises, locking us into decades of fossil fuel dependence while renewable alternatives beckon. Is this truly the legacy you wish to leave? Beyond betrayed promises lies environmental catastrophe. Each barrel extracted fuels the climate crisis, pushing us closer to irreversible tipping points. Floods, droughts, and extreme weather events – these are not distant threats, but the harbingers of a future you risk unleashing on our children. Economic benefits touted by the bill are illusory. Studies show minimal impact on energy bills, while potential legal challenges under the Energy Charter Treaty could leave taxpayers footing a hefty bill for broken promises to fossil fuel companies. We are all watching. Doubling down on fossil fuels while the flames of climate change rise isn't leadership, it's denial. Don't let history remember you as the Prime Minister who gambled with our planet's future for a mirage of short-term gains. Reject this bill, champion renewables, and chart a course towards a truly sustainable future, for the UK and the world. Time is running out, and the stakes have never been higher. https://www.climatechangenews.com/2024/02/20/oil-drilling-while-in-the-energy-charter-treaty-is-economically-reckless/

Not all is bad, yet it is a slow done to the end. I think many countries forget it's about what they all do together that counts, national is just a start. UK need to accelerate on more areas. The build out of Nuclear is happening but can be much more supported outside commercial investments. To give such projects a boost from the start. Brexit hasn't helped at all. And the partially the Russian war is an explanation.

In a shameful move, the UK government has awarded 24 new licenses for oil and gas drilling in the North Sea. Seventeen major oil companies, including industry giants Shell and BP, have received the rights to explore fossil fuel extraction in areas across the Central North Sea, Northern North Sea, and West of Shetland. The decision, part of the government's strategy to prolong the life of the North Sea's ageing oil and gas reserves, comes amid rising concerns about the government's commitment to climate goals and you know... the climate crisis? The move has been labelled as "grossly irresponsible" by reasonable people who accuse the government of prioritising short-term economic gains over its climate leadership. Despite the UK's pledge to phase out fossil fuels at the COP28 UN climate talks, the decision to encourage more drilling has intensified calls for a shift toward sustainable energy practices. The government argues that new licenses will enhance energy security and support the transition to net-zero emissions. 🤡 Critiques argue that the short-term financial gains for the Treasury will not contribute significantly to energy security or lower bills for consumers. Greenpeace UK and other environmental organisations express concern that the move contradicts global efforts to combat the climate crisis and weakens the UK's international standing on climate change, once more. Time to get rid of the conservative government maybe? https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/jan/31/grossly-irresponsible-uk-hands-out-24-new-north-sea-oil-and-gas-licences

Rishi Sunak is facing further attacks on his plans to expand oil and gas exploration in the North Sea this week. The Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill – to be debated in the Commons on Monday – has already triggered widespread protests, including the resignation of Chris Skidmore, a former Conservative energy minister. The bill aims to boost fossil fuel extraction by establishing a new system under which licences for North Sea oil and gas projects will be awarded annually. Green groups and analysts are lining up to criticise it. UpLift, which campaigns for green energy, pointed out that the bill, which the government says will “max out” the UK’s reserves, will actually result in only a 2% rise in North Sea gas output. “The remaining 98% of gas demand will come from existing North Sea fields,” its analysis finds. https://getsnap.link/6i8iHbjT5cK

Rishi Sunak has come under fierce attack from UK climate experts for the Conservative government’s failure over the past 18 months to appoint a new chair of the independent committee that advises ministers on emissions targets. In a letter to the prime minister leaked to the Observer, the UK’s leading organisation working on the economic effects of global warming condemned the “excessive delay” in finding a replacement to the previous chair, Lord Deben. Bob Ward, the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change’s head of policy, warned Sunak that the delay is harming efforts to control carbon emissions and damaging the UK’s reputation as a climate change leader. “Given that the recruitment of the new chair began 18 months ago it is inexplicable that the appointment has still not been announced,” wrote Ward. The work of the committee is at a “critical stage”, he added. “It is not helpful that it does not yet have a new chair as it carries out this work.” https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/dec/30/sunak-under-fire-failure-appoint-climate-committee-chief

Rishi Sunak has been accused of hypocrisy on the international stage after pushing for a phase-out of fossil fuels at the UN Cop28 climate summit in Dubai – weeks after backing more oil and gas exploration in the North Sea. The prime minister’s lack of “consistency” over climate policy was ridiculed by several senior Conservatives, as well as the former US vice president Al Gore, while members of other international delegations said the UK’s incoherent approach meant it was no longer a global leader on climate issues. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/dec/02/rishi-sunak-accused-of-hypocrisy-after-backing-phase-out-of-fossil-fuels-at-cop28

Rishi Sunak's upcoming announcement of a new system for awarding oil and gas licenses in the King's Speech raises concerns in the climate movement. The government's move is seen as an attempt to create political distance from the Labour Party while emphasising job protection and energy security. However, just as Sunak's previous announcements it contradicts the UK's commitment to move away from fossil fuels and reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Sunak's earlier actions, including delaying the phase-out of petrol and diesel cars and gas boilers, have already watered down climate targets, drawing criticism from both the automotive and energy industries. Now, the proposed legislation could be a political trap for Labour, which aims to invest heavily in renewables and nuclear power instead of granting new exploration licenses. Ed Miliband, the shadow climate secretary, sees the proposed bill as a political stunt that fails to address the energy crisis, suggesting that the government is more interested in creating divisions over the green agenda. He argues that dependence on fossil fuels has contributed to the cost of living crisis. Under the new plans, the North Sea Transition Authority will annually (!!!) invite applications for new production licenses, subject to specific tests that promote the transition to net-zero emissions. The key tests include the UK importing more oil and gas than it produces and lower carbon emissions from UK gas production compared to imported liquefied natural gas. While the government claims that domestic energy will support the transition to net zero and create economic growth, critics argue that the proposed legislation is a desperate political move, undermining energy security and the economy. The focus on oil and gas licenses in the King's Speech is diverting attention from the pressing climate action required right now. Stop playing Rishi. We don't have time. https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20231107-sunak-s-king-s-speech-to-set-out-plans-on-climate-crime-ahead-of-uk-election

The government is increasing its air source heat pump grants for homeowners in England and Wales by 50% to £7,500 from Monday amid criticism about slow adoption of the low-carbon technology. The £2,500 in extra support – on top of £5,000 offered – aims to take the cost of installing an air source heat pump below that of the average gas boiler. Support for installing ground source heat pumps – which are not suitable for most homes in the UK as they require access to a large outdoor space – will increase from £6,000 to £7,500. The rise, which was announced by the prime minister, Rishi Sunak, last month alongside the watering down of a planned ban on new gas boilers by 2035, comes after the government faced criticism from the National Infrastructure Commission (NIC) on its home heating policies https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/oct/23/heat-pump-grant-boosted-by-50-to-improve-slow-take-up-across-england-and-wales
