Stop imports and our use would be limited by national production. This would wake up all sides of the debate.

Resignation by Chris Skidmore does very little to prevent Climate Change.
It would be better if he stayed in Parliament to support the development of Tidal Stream power as a long term constant energy source.
It is quick to install and must be installed in every estuary around the UK to generate the much needed electricity.
This combined with green hydrogen produced by the electrolysis of water to power transport and the heating of property would soon overtake the need for fossil fuels and prevent climate change
