The Race To Net Zero.
The poster used the data for one particularly dark, non-windy day when the data for an entire year was available. How is this not misleading? It's like claiming that Notts don't score many because Sam Slocombe hasn't scored yet. Coal is imported from abroad. In 2022, the UK became a net exporter of electricity for the first time in 44 years (source: Statista). On top of that, the UK is a very windy country with a very long coastline. We could literally lead the world in wind power, reducing our dependency on dodgy foreign regimes for fossil fuels and giving us cleaner air. It will be cheaper in the long run too! It's worth noting that power bills surged in the first place because we were overly dependent on Russia for gas. The same regime that is already being courted by Donald Trump. If we want to reduce our exposure, we need to become truly energy independent. Here's another reminder that the pages you've been sharing are financed by foreign oil companies that want us to keep paying for their oil! Batteries exist. Look up energy storage systems. Some former coal power stations are being repurposed as giant batteries so we can use excess energy in lean periods. David Bellamy is a botanist. Would you go to a doctor of law if you had a broken leg? -

The Race To Net Zero.
Generally, scientists who oppose this perceived general consensus on climate change are either shouted down, or cancelled. What happened to David Bellamy who dared to challenge that general consensus? -

The Race To Net Zero.
@DangerousSausage Misleading information? In your opinion, but in reality no Autumn & Winter is the time when the temperature drops considerably, if you didn't notice. There is going to be a big demand for power, electricity and gas usage is going to go up tremendously. The Country no longer has the energy generation capacity to supply during peak demand. Fossil fuels are still going to be relatively cheap in the US & now Trump is now in power he's going to reverse any movement to renewables, while this government will just carry on regardless to net zero. Having to import electricity from abroad is a national disgrace, & shutting down the coal fired power stations & building windmills that have no wind to power them half the time, is a nation calamity. Renewable energy is more expensive. We are also paying the renewable levy in our bills making our bills more expensive. Shutting down Oil exploration, stopping new coal mines, shutting down the coalmines in the first place & banning fracking is going to put our industry, what's left of it, to a big disadvantage internationally. And domestic energy bills in this Country, which is the highest in the World, will only get more expensive, unless these policies are reversed. And this Labour government stopped the winter fuel allowance for millions of pensioners just like me. That's my take. People can judge by how expensive their bill is now, & in the future, but if anyone thinks that energy prices will ever reduce in this Country, think again. The only way that they will reduce if government reverse this crazy obsession with green policies. -

The Race To Net Zero.
You're all conflating two issues here. Firstly, there's climate change. Companies with a vested interest in fossil fuels dedicate a lot of resources to lobbying and attempting to influence public opinion as this helps shore up their business. Net Zero Watch, which has been quoted on this thread, goes to great lengths to hide the sources of its funding, but we do know it has connections to the US oil industry. On the other side you have climate scientists, who have to disclose their funding and publish their findings in full for public scrutiny. Who do you trust to provide you with accurate information that isn't framed in a misleading way? A good example of misleading information is the post by @Robbie showing the power sources for a single November day. We all know why November was chosen and not May or July. That day has been dishonestly cherry-picked to show the lowest possible share of renewables in power generation. Viewed over a whole year, renewable sources contribute over 30% of UK energy. Secondly, there's net zero and how we get there. If we care about energy security (and we should), we need to remember that fossil and nuclear fuels are imported. The UK does not have any significant uranium deposits. Renewables are the only game in town and they need to be planned sensibly. Instead of denying climate change or spreading false claims about renewables put out there by vested interests, we need to be pushing politicians to make sure that the financial burden of this change isn't borne by those who are least able to pay for it - again!
