政府的决定关乎英国在迈向净零排放的道路上，生产多少石油和天然气才是明智之举。
Government decision is about how much oil and gas is sensible for UK to produce on the way to net zero Andy Burnham hit the nail on the (well)head in his first fortnight as prime minister when he said: “The question isn’t whether Britain will still be using oil and gas, the question is, where does it come from?”
安迪·伯纳姆在担任首相的前两周一针见底地指出：“问题不在于英国是否仍将使用石油和天然气，而在于这些能源来自何处。”这番话指向了几个尴尬的能源现实。
It was a nod towards several awkward energy facts.
首先，政府数据显示，2025年石油和天然气提供了英国75%的能源。
First, oil and gas provided 75% of the UK’s energy in 2025, government data shows.
其次，即使随着国内可再生能源发电的推广，去年英国总体能源消费中仍有约43%依赖进口。
Second, even with the rollout of domestic renewables for generating electricity, about 43% of overall energy was imported last year.
