💶💶💶🧵In today’s Blind Spot I explain how there’s a renewed bid to seize Russian frozen assets and redirect them to Ukraine (the full underlying sums not just the interest). It is based on a new scheme that claims to have fully addressed all financial stability risks. At its

And now, the fallers - petrol and diesel Petrol sales fell 17.3% compared to Feb 24 In fact, I think this is the first month that petrols have ever accounted for less than half of all new car sales (47.4%) A pretty significant moment

Turning off air pollution monitoring at U.S. embassies around the world doesn't compare to depriving Ukrainian civilians of defences against Russia's missiles in cruelty, but it is an astonishingly pointless act of sabotage. U.S. monitoring in Beijing played a central role in

ULEZ works. It’s that simple. Expanding the Ultra Low Emission Zone wasn’t a decision I took lightly, but the latest figures show that it was the right one for the health of millions of Londoners.

The trend is clear. More renewables = lower wholesale prices. But it's simplistic, as only considering renewables means that you can't take account of other sources of low-carbon power, such as France's huge nuclear fleet. So I ran the numbers again.

The Reuters column explicitly blames rising electricity bills on the costs of "backing up" renewable power. However, these "back-up" costs accounted for just 6% of the typical UK household electricity bill in 2024. Wholesale prices accounted for 32%. eciu.net/analysis/brief…

READ!- The Center for Global Development research in Nicholas Kristof moving piece = worlds richest man Musk’s cuts would result in 1.65 million deaths of the worlds poorest people THIS YEAR, if not stopped. At least 4x that would die in President Trumps 2nd term. The Musk massacre is avoidable Fox News

A brilliant, sub 3 minute demonstration on why we need to get off gas and move faster towards renewables to lower bills. Made for wide sharing !

Good news of the day: All those anti-renewable energy bills the Texas Senate passed recently are now dead. Texas has been leading the country in energy abundance by making it easy to build all kinds of energy infrastructure. Renewables are winning on cost now, which is why
