SIR – I have just read that according to NASA, there is now an all-time high of Antarctic sea ice. It seems also according to the International Panel for Climate Change ‘there has been no statistically significant increase in global temperature since 1997’.

Can someone explain therefore why I, and millions like me, are struggling to afford our electricity bills, which carry a 17 per cent premium for so-called green energy?
