'Turning point': Rosebank oil and Jackdaw gas permissions in North Sea scrapped by courts

APPLE.NEWS

The UK Labour government is under pressure to reaffirm its commitment to the energy...

Absolute madness, UK is the laughing stock of the industrialised nations. 

Current path for the UK is an energy deficient nation reliant on others for oil and gas shipped in from all over the planet, all whilst we sit on our own natural resources. Look to Norway for an example of pragmatism. 
Meanwhile in the rest of the world!!!!

Interesting. 

Welsh gov have designated all of Wales a nitrate vulnerable zone. Farmers will have to account for all the N spread on the land with extra regs relating to application before rain and storage. It should already be fully  implemented but kickback from the farmers has delayed it again and again. 

 

It looks almost like regenerative farming might be the answer. Who'd have thought, nature knows best?

I can see that happening. I was just reading that it will cost around £14 billion and take 10 years. There must be a lot of property to purchase and flatten.

 

 

Could probably build a couple of runways at the other airports for that, bring jobs to other areas of the country.

It's actually more of a silage desert round here. Hence all the nitrate rich slurry being sprayed about ( in an already slightly more controlled manner...)

I appreciate your sentiment though and yes in some areas I think regenerative agriculture is proving effective economically as well as for soils, carbon, biodiversity. All still v fragmented on a national scale though.

As long as we outsource all the work to foreign companies it will be another big win for London, sorry, the UK.
