This is an insane policy move by the Tories. A must read is, Professor Bill McGuire's book The #FateOfTheWorld. #Renewables are critical, no more oil & gas.

Fossil fuels are just old sunlight - stored solar energy from deep time that we're now burning all at once. The sun already sends us 10,000x the energy we need. We're digging up the past instead of making the most of the gift above

Our planet is heating faster than at any time in the geological record. That's terrifying. But here's the hopeful part: most of us are worried and want action — we just stay silent, assuming no one else cares. 7 in 10 people rarely or never talk about it. So the silence feeds itself

Far more energy.
That’s a pretty remarkable example of what technological efficiency can do.
And the panels don’t need to be replanted every year!
