You can also filter the map to show just how much methane - a potent greenhouse gas - is already being released by oil + gas extraction in the North Sea. Expanding this means releasing ever more of a gas that makes a huge contribution to climate change:

There are half a billion barrels of oil in Rosebank which if burnt would produce 200million tons CO2. The science is absolutely clear about this: we must rapidly phase out fossil fuels for any hope of limiting warming to below 2°C. This means no new old and gas.

Well, I should say that for its architects, Brexit has been enormously successful. They bet against the country and in exchange gained enormous power and wealth. Why apologise when you believe you've won?

To be clear: it is all bleak. No one should be happy about where climate politics is at.
But let’s attribute the right type of blame.
