Black Friday reminder: one of the most important things you can do to help our planet is not to buy things you don't need. And "eco-friendly" things are still things. So don't be sucked in by "offers" and "deals" unless you already needed that thing. Please.

Just checked how much we currently spend on heating with our heat pump. Per unit of heat delivered we spend 7p/kWh using @OctopusEnergy@twitter.com Agile tariff.

A gas boiler at 85% efficiency currently delivers heat at cost of 13p/kWh (average costs from uswitch).

That's a 45% saving.

It just occurred to me that across the 4,000 #Mastodon servers each with their #MastoAdmin plus their moderator teams... we have more content moderators tracking reports and complaints than Twitter does.

For the folks who keep asking about how we're going to scale, we're on it.

UK home insulation rates have collapsed after 2012 and never recovered.

@theCCCuk@twitter.com just published a letter calling on the UK government to drive energy savings in homes to help households in times of high energy prices.
