READER Q&A: ASK OUR REPORTERS ANYTHING ABOUT FOSSIL FUEL PROFITS AND THE CLIMATE CRISIS – LIVE

Reporters Jillian Ambrose and Damian Carrington from The Guardian are hosting a live Q&A session to discuss their recent story about the biggest oil firms making $93bn in profits in three months amid the war and climate crisis. The session allows readers to ask questions and engage with the reporters about their findings. The discussion includes topics such as harnessing sea power to address the climate crisis.

According to Damian Carrington, the UK is home to the world's most powerful tidal stream turbine, operated by Orbital Marine Power, which produces 2MW of power. However, he notes that a large scale-up is needed to make a significant difference, and that placing electric equipment in moving salty water is a challenging task. A large tidal lagoon project in Swansea was cancelled by ministers in 2018 due to high costs compared to alternatives like offshore wind farms and nuclear power.

The climate crisis is having a significant impact on the UK, with winter rainfall being affected, and the country is exploring alternative energy sources to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. The discussion around fossil fuel profits and the climate crisis is ongoing, with various sources, including The Guardian, providing coverage on the topic.
