Study: Oil companies are not ‘part of the solution’

New research in the journal Nature reveals oil and gas companies own a “marginal” share of global renewable capacity, years after claiming they would lead the energy transition.

I had 2x brilliant (music) teachers. One at Primary School got us doing a load of Beatles stuff - 1980s.
Truly excellent one at Secondary school, I'd have done music GCSE if he didn't get fired :'(
Then 3x years of patronising crap :S

Kids are little sponges - fill their heads, not with any ideology, but the ability to form their own and recognise/critique/engage with others.
+bloody music - bring back the arts for kids, safe spaces for expression.
