And we have been blown away by the positive response to the database!

The Ed Miliband hate-fest in the UK press continued last year.
Predominantly right-wing newspapers published an incredible 112 editorials attacking the energy secretary.
That's two editorials a week, and more than twice as many as 2024, calling him a "crazed" "zealot" suffering with “eco insanity”
Today's @carbonbrief.org Daily Briefing factchecks the false climate claims in Donald Trump's tirade to the UN
