Does this sit well with our climate change ‘credentials’ ?

Still working for me ?

It’s about funding a project by Total to develop a NG field/facility in Mozambique in the Guardian.

It's working for me now :) which is strange since the article is over one year old - but the page put up by the Guardian said it did not exist eariler.

?

Anyway, there’s various court cases and potential cases from, for example, Friends of the Earth.

I appreciate the need for a strategic approach to energy and consideration of securing sufficient generating capacity, but surely, after the recent IPCC report and Bozo chairing COP26, what message is it sending out ?

Strategically, investing in Moroccan solar with a suitable interconnector would be more appropriate.
