@soot.2146 Dealing with your first point, the UK does indeed have oil and gas resources, especially in the North Sea, but these reserves are expected to last only around 10-20 more years at current production rates. Even if tapped, UK fossil fuels are sold on the global market, so they wouldn’t lower domestic prices. To ensure long-term energy security and meet climate goals, many argue that investment in renewable energy is a smarter approach, providing stable jobs and reducing dependency on finite fossil fuels
Funding from fossil fuel investors supports Reform UK, and media platforms such as GB News, and TalkTV, which can shape public narratives by emphasising the benefits of fossil fuels and downplaying renewables.
If the UK’s fossil fuel reserves are limited and don’t directly lower domestic energy costs, what are the economic, environmental, and social arguments for continuing to invest in fossil fuel industries versus accelerating investment in renewable energy ?
