So it's now news Hinkley Point C will be really expensive?

FFS, I & others were trying to tell people this over a decade ago, before contracts were signed

But the nuclear-political establishment thought they knew better

They didn't. Not for the first time

And let us remind you of what exactly we’re thankful for.
Something that has already saved lives and will keep doing so.
Something that will never be undone, nor will it ever be forgotten.

Today might be an occasion to express it, but this feeling stays with us constantly💙💛

Was there any coverage of the recent record warmth in both the Arctic and Antarctic? Multiple global datasets now confirm these records, and I think it's really quite striking.

Here's some very quick plots showing NOAAGlobalTempv6 data from October too. And see my earlier posts.
