We need to do a lot more still, but the fact that the UKs energy generation is 20% of the CO2 emmisions per MW that it was just 10 years ago, despite a very conservative government, is pretty awesome.
(20% figure from this page which has sone cool data and visualisations on it:https://grid.iamkate.com/ data is all sourced from the UK's National Energy Operator)
๐ at 0.00% from solar ๐ญ
Yeah, but remember that data is live and it's currently night time in the UK! (I think average solar is pretty liw in the UK though- something like 5%)
