UK's new energy secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh
Miatta Fahnbulleh has been appointed UK Secretary of State for Energy and Net Zero amid concerns over potential approvals for new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea, notably at the Jackdaw and Rosebank fields. Her appointment signals a continuation of previous decarbonization commitments, despite opposition from climate activists and ongoing debates about fossil fuel expansion. Fahnbulleh, known for her expertise in economic and environmental policy, previously headed the New Economics Foundation and has a background in progressive climate and social justice initiatives. She is expected to challenge calls for increased fossil fuel extraction while promoting renewable energy and a just transition.
