Rosebank, the largest untapped oil field in the UK, is off the coast of Shetland. Its approval by regulators is expected soon and production could begin as early as 2026.
Should it go ahead? If it does, what will be the environmental impact? If it doesn’t, what’s the alternative?

Scotgov has to resist this hard. Oil investment has to stop
It’s almost as if people aren’t listening to the news about: out of control forest fires in Canada, heat domes covering large parts of North America, Greek islands on fire, parts of Europe slowly turning into deserts, parts of the Middle East being close to being unable to sustain human life, etc. And craziest thing of all is that they don’t realise that burning all these trees is pumping vast amounts of extra CO2 into the atmosphere so that it’s only going to get worse.
some just want to see the world burn
Long term thinking would be to continue to build off-shore wind farms that will continue to be useful once oil is phased out.
I can’t believe they are even considering it. If the tories don’t win the general election can this be stopped??
