This would be economically illiterate & environmentally disastrous - and makes us less secure: undermining efforts to reduce energy bills by reducing dependence on gas, increasing vulnerability to global dictators, driving climate emissions & knee capping a market that’s just beginning to take off

The transition involves not just generating clean electricity, but also providing storage, flexible demand & reliable backup. 6/

@XRBristol @xrbristol.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Electrification reduces the amount of energy required. A petrol car loses much of its fuel energy as heat, but an electric motor converts electricity into motion very efficiently. Heat pumps also deliver several kWh of heat for each kWh of electricity put in. 5/

....but it can help do so when petrol and diesel vehicles are replaced by electric vehicles, gas boilers by heat pumps, and industrial processes by electric alternatives. 4/

Transport, heating, industrial processes and other activities consume substantial amounts of oil and gas directly. Decarbonising electricity does not automatically decarbonise those activities... 3/

@XRBristol @xrbristol.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
So even if we converted the entire electricity grid to renewables, we would still be using huge amounts of foreign gas & oil. 2/

Despite all the fine talk of decarbonisation, 75% of the energy the UK uses comes from fossil fuels. They make up more than 90% of imports. Imports account for 43% of the energy we consume. www.thetimes.com/article/7663... 1/

Someone also suggested the tractors and other vehicles powered by fossil fuels should be banned from carnivals. Besides the Greenhouse gas emissions the crowd gets bathed in noxious gases & particulates. A town like Ilminster should have enough youngsters to pull the floats around.

It isn't on the brink of immediate extinction, but it is a genuinely uncommon wild bird with a small and declining population and a very restricted habitat. 3/

@XRBristol @xrbristol.bsky.social · 23/09/2026
It depends heavily on water sources in the dry season. The drying or disappearance of those water sources is a major conservation concern. Habitat loss, changes in agriculture & historical trapping for the cage-bird trade are additional pressures. 2/
