This is why we need to promote more drastic action in terms of carbon offsetting. You can offset the impact of all the flights you've taken over your lifetime, plus those of your friends and family, by killing just one billionaire.

This is replacing agricultural fields. Solar panels allow for a drastic increase in biodiversity over crop monocultures. It's an improvement on the metrics you care about as well as in energy production.

This time to feed its infinte hunger for energy.

UK electricity demand is down 20% since 2012, and continuing on a downward trend.

Changes away from more polluting energy sources to meet this reduced demand is a good thing.

Previously you got 10,000 free listings a month on private seller accounts, now it's 300. Which is plenty for actual private sellers, but businesses operating as private sellers will have to start paying for their listings

And the 10% that is, probably shouldn't be. The recycling process releases massive quantities of micro-plastics into our waterways, and from there into our soil, and so into our food.
