Turns out net zero is cheaper than a single fossil fuel crisis. 🤷
The sooner we build on clean, home-grown energy, the sooner we stop handing the keys to foreign gas markets. But we also need market reform now - so customers, not just corporations, actually reap the benefits of renewables.
Received this in the post today. Been hugely controversial locally (as all changes to car parking seem to be) but I really support what @forestryengland.bsky.social are doing.
It costs money to manage and protect the New Forest. People who drive and park should pay towards the cost of doing so.
Solar curve showing the arrival of the Saharan dust cloud quite nicely. Milky skies now
World book day by bike. Stretching the fairytale theme a bit. Definitely not just wearing last year's Halloween costumes...👹💀🚴♂️
Three fighter jets just ripped overhead in Romsey, Hampshire. Can't remember seeing that before except when the airshow was on nearby or the red arrows were doing something in London

I've no idea what the commentators are talking about during the men's half pipe finals but I'm loving it all the same 🏂 #WinterOlympics
Certainly feels that way. I know "we're not made of sugar" and good waterproofs can make a massive difference but even so this year has felt like a massive slog when you mainly use a bike to get around. 🚴♂️🌧️🙄
It hasn't even officially started yet and I'm already watching the #curling in the Winter Olympics 🥌
What a difference a day makes: yesterday and today
The Tadburn stream in Romsey from my lunchtime walk today. Sadly looks like a few properties were flooded. Spoke separately to a couple of old guys who said they had never seen it so high before. The EA had just arrived to try and start pumping it out. #stormchandra
Nobody wants them latest

Ask #traitors their name? They would have to lie and pick a faithful, which narrows the pool for who a traitor must be.
Same for fools driving into flood water and instantly flooding the engine
I like bluesky but one thing I miss from Twitter is the videos of people crashing their white BMWs, Audi's etc into other objects when it's a little bit snowy or icy.
Just never appear on my feed now. If you've got any please send through
Nice to wake up to some snowy scenes this morning. Presume drivers will give me and the kids some extra time and space as we cycle to school this morning...🚴♂️❄️🥶
Spent a lovely frosty morning in the New Forest looking for ice ❄️
2025 generation round-up!
Wind power was the main producer with 29.7% of the year's generation (but I thought they didn't work?) 🥰
37.3% of the grid was powered from renewables vs 26.8% fossil fuels. 💪
.... and the lights didn't go out 😜
Meanwhile nuclear came in at 11.8%
Cycling stats for 2025. Biggest year for me on the bike. Longest ride, furthest ride, biggest climb & most elevation
Big skies on the Essex coast today
Matches my experience - my best year for solar generation so far. March was particularly good. 🌞⚡🔋
Beautiful but cold morning. Should have put on more socks and the big gloves. Kids were toasty as always. 🚴♂️❄️🥶
Surprised it's not more tbh.
Too much nitrogen from cars and slurry probably a much bigger issue though
If anyone want to give me £1.2M in exchange for £150k I would be very happy to accept. DM me
Probably can afford to pay a bit more tax then...
St. Pancras station this morning 😍
