Watched The Climate Show on Sky News for the first time last night, really interesting statistics. I had no idea that 53% of the power used in the UK is sustainable, largely all solar and wind turbine plus some nuclear. The imminent through the roof energy price increase is partially down to the fact it has been that sunny or windy recently!
