We need to do a lot more still, but the fact that the UKs energy generation is 20% of the CO2 emmisions per MW that it was just 10 years ago, despite a very conservative government, is pretty awesome.

(20% figure from this page which has sone cool data and visualisations on it:https://grid.iamkate.com/ data is all sourced from the UK's National Energy Operator)

Yeah, but remember that data is live and it's currently night time in the UK! (I think average solar is pretty liw in the UK though- something like 5%)
