What is the UK Playing at?

It seems despite the endless warnings on impending climate collapse, the call for immediate halt to fossil fuels. The UK Prime minister has decided to issue 100's of new Licenses to extract oil and gas from the North Sea.

This appears to be so we can increase our energy security. This of course is garbage, we can produce our energy needs using renewable means, we just need to get this capacity connected to the national grid. We just need to ban the sale of gas appliances, retrain people in the newer tech so we can minimise job losses and find more sustainable ways of doing things.

At the same time, we are trying to tell other countries to cut down on fossil fuels, we need to lead by example.

In the meantime it seems claims the heatwaves are false are being spread via mainstream social media. From this it looks like X / Twitter is at the centre of all this.

This is why I use fedi, intelligent people, having intelligent conversations and discussions, encouraging critical thinking and understanding of the science, hence recent posts on here about theory and hypothesis.
