Resurfacing briefly to say this is, IMO, one of the most important TV documentaries ever made. You walk away with no illusions about how things unfolded with the willing help of people at every level of society. If you don't want to watch it right now, which I totally understand, come back to it.
Nine years ago the UK was all set to trial hydrogen-powered trains and buses, and there was even talk of switching to hydrogen boilers. What happened?
My piece for @boelleu.bsky.social on the fuel that isn't.

Not a good morning. Absolutely disgusted by what went on in Belfast last night. Need some time off social media, won't be posting much today.
This is one of the most amazing videos I've ever seen.

Saw Eric Bibb live in Belfast tonight. He was awesome! Fabulous blues and folk in his unique style. Huge presence. So much soul in everything he does.
This is billed as the first ever footage of a live Great White in the Med, which is really something! But important to note that we knew they're present there and probably have been for a long time.
They face serious threats in the Med:

Amazing footage. Speaks to the important role that shipwrecks have within marine ecosystems.
