## Resource

Big news from the North Sea: Rosebank and Jackdaw oil and gas projects are racing for approval, promising to supply 6% of UK gas needs and heat a million homes by winter. Backers have invested £3 million and tout thousands of jobs, claiming it’s climate-compatible. But critics warn the gas could match Scotland’s entire annual emissions, while politicians push to scrap the windfall tax, arguing it’s stifling investment in renewables. The government insists it’s walking a tightrope—securing energy, lowering bills, creating jobs, and staying on track for net zero.
