Ed Miliband is right: UK electricity bills are too high. ⚡️ We pay nearly 26p/kWh, while the US and Sweden pay much less. Dr @iain_staffell says the system is flawed, with gas still setting prices. The solution? Green transition & market reform. 🌍 https://t.co/SercuQ5dEH

"We really need to bring emissions down in the short term because these feedback loops make it harder in the long term to stay below the [1.5°C] target" @RobinLamboll on record-high CO₂ emissions and the urgency for action, via @itvnews (🎥2:03 onwards) https://t.co/y0TcqWcmDk
