This is profoundly irresponsible by the BBC. Truly shocking. It should actually be a BBC podcast. @evanhd.bsky.social

It's astonishingly stupid. Presumably only seen as controversial by RW climate change deniers.
Omfg! By pretending not to be bias, the BBC is being bias 🤦♀️ Getting a heat pump was the best decision I ever made, quids in from day one even if you include loan cost AND new bill, and my bills are less than all my neighbours.
Time to email BBC Radio 4's Feedback and ask what is controversial about it? www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/a...
"progressed"? What?
Instead it posts a terrible article providing some info on air-to-water heat pumps (the most common type in the UK and the only one for which there's a government grant) whilst providing a pic with captions of air-to-air heat pumps, for which there's no financial aid. www.bbc.co.uk/news/science...

And at a time when investment in renewables is necessary for inviting investment. Meanwhile the UK and Labour are busy shooting theirself in both feet, doubling down on outdated energy sources and busy making bigotry legal being butcher's apron MAGA. bsky.app/profile/doug...
The BBC has failed in the 'inform' part of its Reithian remit for years. Dreadful reporting on, for example, Brexit, Covid, and climate change. No longer a trustworthy news organisation.
Our ‘Public Service’ broadcaster…?
Though in my case it has done the public service of making me aware of the podcast!
True crime. Popular genre.
As a kid in 1950’s London when I had measles, annual cases varied from 200,000 to 700,000 with about 100 deaths. My parents had a coal fire, when the 1952 ‘Great Smog’ killed an estimated 10-13k people. I rode in the backseat of our car ‘untethered.’ Are we heading back to this ‘golden era’?
What is controversial about heat pumps? !?!?
Kemi Baddenoch.
oil, gas and coal companies.
Part of a move towards climate change scepticism probably.
Time to clear out the BBC board and senior management. Appointed by Tory Party from its own grandees. Farrigists and Climate deniers appeased here. Labour Govt can NOT let this continue. The Daily Heil will complain, but its readers don't vote Labour anyway.
Truly shocking. What else is on the 'banned' topic list?
Science and innovation are bad? Next, the BBC will not be advocating vaccines, because they are deemed controversial by some right wing numpties.
Borisification of BBC since 2016 continues now Gary Lineker leaves because of this right wing management. Journalists who would not be out of place on GB news seems to be in charge .
Actually, Cameron started it.
