Just going to keep saying this - the fossil fuel crisis stopped being segmented and is now persistent and probably perpetual. The only way to protect yourself from this is to lobby your politicians to end reliance on this war-torn, unreliable, expensive fuel and switch to modern technology instead.

First Bluesky user to judge the Great British Bake Off! 🍰

First family snap from new season’s Bake Off!! It starts on Channel 4 in September, though I haven’t got an exact date to give you yet. As soon as I know, I’ll tell you. (And I have no info on timings for other territories, I’m afraid.) I couldn’t be happier!

“Instead of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along that the statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness” - Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951)

Maybe we should have gone for an economy built on crypto and oil instead. Remember the key thing about anti net zero - or "I believe in it just not now" - people, they don't believe in growth. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I discovered the "suggest political content" setting on Facebook last week and - to my surprise - turning it off really works! (obviously it's turned on by default, and most won't even know of its existence, but worth spreading the word anyway)

Europe's electricity: 29% fossil fuels in 2024, down from 53% in 2005. Progress. But transport is still 92% fossil. Buildings: 71%. Industry: 61%. And 95% of EU oil and 88% of gas imported. Switching suppliers doesn't fix this. Electrification and efficiency do. More here: rdcu.be/feOjc

In honour of #StDavidsDay here are the wonderful Penbryn Spoons, which were found in 1829 beneath a heap of stones inside the Castell Nadolig hillfort, near Penbryn in Ceredigion, Wales. The pair of cast bronze ‘spoons’ date to the Late Iron Age (c. 50 BCE–100 CE).

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump: "Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

On top of everything else, oil and gas prices are going to spike because of Trump’s war in Iran. But guess what doesn’t get disrupted by wars? Renewable energy. Solar. Wind. Geothermal. Storage.

La Roche Longue in Quintin (Côtes-d’Armor) is a 7m tall needle-like granite menhir. It was said that fairies and nains used to dance around it and that the menhir itself sometimes danced when midnight sounded. #StandingStoneSunday.
