UK heatwave triggers national emergency.

The National News (July 16, 2022): Second Cobra meeting called as UK heatwave triggers national emergency.

Londoners urged not travel on Monday and Tuesday with 80 per cent chance record temperature could be set and warning lives are at risk.

BBC (January 28, 2021): Renewable energy overtakes fossil fuels for first time as UK's biggest source of electricity in 2020.

For the first time, renewable energy overtook fossil fuels to be the biggest source of electricity in the UK in 2020.

Wind, solar, bio-energy and hydro (water) power generated a record 42% of UK power last year, while fossil fuels - mostly gas - produced 41%, according to a report by energy experts Ember and Agora Energiewende.

In 2019, renewables generated 37% of the UK's electricity, compared with 45% for fossil fuels.

How's that green, renewable energy working? The AC running good? Better get those child laborers in third-world countries to hurry up and increase their lithium and cobalt production. The Stiff-Upper-Lippers are having a heatwave.

Update/Addition: Ooof ..hit the BBC link and scroll all the way to the bottom (which I didn't do the first time) and READ THE COMMENTS. They kind of all read like this:

"This is awesome, great news."

"The world will live longer." 🤣🤣🤣

"This is awesome."

"This is great news that renewable energy overtakes fossil fuels."

 I hope these same commenters enjoy their heatwave.
