上个月，在能源安全与净零排放部外举行了一场反对罗斯班克油田的抗议活动。

安迪·伯纳姆坚称自己致力于绿色转型，但他的下院议员们担心，在一个又一个决策中，他显示出其他优先事项排在首位。
Andy Burnham insists he is committed to the green transition, but his MPs worry that in decision after decision, he is showing that other priorities come first.
首相9月在《卫报》撰文写道：“我们不断变化的气候是许多英国人的主要担忧，尤其是因为我们刚刚经历了有记录以来最热的夏天。”
“Our changing climate is a major concern for many Britons, not least because we have just emerged from our hottest summer on record” the prime minister wrote in the Guardian in September.
然而，自那以后，他监督了一系列令绿色派工党议员失望的宣布：首先，他的能源大臣米娅·范布勒批准了杰克道天然气田。接着，他的财政大臣约翰·希利宣布削减一系列绿色计划，例如热泵补贴。
Since then, however, he has overseen a series of announcements that have dismayed green-focused Labour First his energy secretary, Miatta Fahnbulleh, approved the Jackdaw gasfield. Then his chancellor, John Healey, announced a series of cuts to green schemes such as heat pump subsidies.
现在，议员们正密切关注未来几周将做出的两项关键决定：他是否推动范布勒批准规模更大的罗斯班克油田，以及他的部长们是否削减电动汽车目标。
Now MPs are carefully watching two key decisions to be made in the coming weeks: whether he pushes Fahnbulleh to approve the larger Rosebank oilfield, and whether his ministers cut electric vehicle targets“I know the prime minister is committed to the green transition and meeting our climate targets, and he understands the seriousness of the climate crisis,” said Catherine Fookes, a Labour backbencher.
工党后座议员凯瑟琳·福克斯表示：“我知道首相致力于绿色转型和实现我们的气候目标，他了解气候危机的严重性。”
But she added: “The government has some incredibly difficult decisions to make in the coming months … I believe the Zev [zero emissions vehicle] mandate should stay, and Rosebank should be rejected.”
但她补充道：“政府在未来几个月面临一些极其艰难的决定……我认为零排放汽车（Zev）强制令应当保留，罗斯班克油田应当被否决。”
Her colleague Andrew Lewin said: “We have a strong record on renewables, and lots of good work being led by DESNZ [the energy department]. Approving Rosebank would risk undermining our record. It is not worth it.”
她的同事安德鲁·刘易斯说：“我们在可再生能源方面有着强劲记录，能源安全与净零排放部（DESNZ）主导了大量优秀工作。批准罗斯班克油田将冒着破坏我们记录的风险。这不值得。”
Ami McCarthy, the head of politics at Greenpeace, said: “This government’s heart seems to be in the right place on climate, but there’s still a real danger of them sleepwalking into reversing the progress made so far.”Miatta Fahnbulleh, the energy secretary, arrives in Downing Street for a cabinet meeting last month.
绿色和平组织政治部门负责人阿米·麦卡锡表示：“这届政府在气候问题上的初衷似乎是好的，但他们仍面临着睡梦中逆转迄今取得进展的真实危险。”上个月，能源大臣米娅·范布勒抵达唐宁街参加内阁会议。
Those close to the prime minister insist he understands the importance of tackling the climate crisis and believes it can help to bring down living costs in the future.
首相身边的人士坚称，他理解应对气候危机的重要性，并相信这在未来有助于降低生活成本。
But at the same time he is trying to give voters financial “breathing space” this winter while also bolstering national security.
但与此同时，他正试图在今冬给选民提供经济上的“喘息空间”，同时也要加强国家安全。
Some Labour MPs criticised Burnham in the summer for responding to wildfires by urging people not to use barbecues rather than talking about the climate emergency. But they have been more concerned by decisions he has taken since.
今夏，一些工党议员批评伯纳姆应对野火的方式是呼吁民众不要使用烧烤架，而不是谈论气候紧急状态。但他们对伯纳姆此后做出的决定更为担忧。
The decisions to approve Jackdaw and cut some of the energy department’s green schemes were based on national security concerns.
批准“杰克道”项目、削减部分能源部门绿色计划的决定，是基于国家安全考量。
By providing a domestic source of gas, Jackdaw will reduce reliance on imported fossil fuels, with European dependence on Russian gas having proved a big problem at the outbreak of the war in Ukraine.
通过提供国内天然气来源，“杰克道”项目将减少对进口化石燃料的依赖；欧洲对俄罗斯天然气的依赖在俄乌战争爆发时已被证明是个大问题。
And by cutting more than £3bn from the energy department, Healey has been able to raise defence spending – something the former defence secretary has made one of his top priorities.
此外，希利通过削减能源部门超过30亿英镑的预算，得以增加国防开支——这位前国防大臣已将此列为其首要任务之一。
The cuts will come principally from the £15bn warm homes plan, which promised to roll out electrified energy via heat pumps, rooftop solar panels and batteries, and to cut energy waste via home insulation. Funding for hydrogen and carbon capture technologies has been cut by £700m.
削减资金主要来自150亿英镑的“温暖家园计划”，该计划承诺通过热泵、屋顶太阳能电池板和电池推广电气化能源，并通过家庭隔热减少能源浪费。氢能和碳捕获技术的资金被削减了7亿英镑。
The cuts to the boiler upgrade scheme in particular were met with dismay among environmental experts. Britain lags behind many European countries when it comes to electrifying its heating system.
特别是对锅炉升级计划的削减，令环境专家感到失望。在供暖系统电气化方面，英国落后于许多欧洲国家。
Experts say the UK is now unlikely to meet its heat pump targets and may even miss its emissions reductions target in the next carbon budget.
专家表示，英国现在不大可能实现其热泵目标，甚至可能在下一个碳预算期内无法达到减排目标。
Andrew Sissons, a director at the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts, a research charity, said: “The chancellor made a backward step here. If you speak to any climate change expert they will say the biggest problem to tackle is home heating.
国家科学、技术与艺术基金会（一家研究慈善机构）主任安德鲁·西森斯表示：“财相此举是一个倒退的步骤。如果你跟任何气候变化专家交谈，他们都会说，最大的待解决问题是家庭供暖。”
“We are way behind where we need to be. The most effective action to remove carbon emissions from homes is to replace gas boilers with heat pumps. The boiler upgrade scheme is the key mechanism for removing emissions from home heating, and cutting it sends a damaging signal to the heat pump industry.”
“我们距离应达到的目标还差得远。从家庭中清除碳排放最有效的行动是用热泵取代燃气锅炉。锅炉升级计划是清除家庭供暖排放的关键机制，削减该计划向热泵行业发出了有害信号。”
James Dyson, a senior researcher at the thinktank E3G, said: “Reliance on gas means the UK will remain vulnerable to economic shocks and military threats.”Green campaigners were also disappointed by the budget decisions to allow hyperscale datacentres to build on-site fossil fuel power generation and not to increase the windfall tax on energy companies.
智库E3G的高级研究员詹姆斯·戴森说：“对天然气的依赖意味着英国将继续易受经济冲击和军事威胁的影响。”绿色运动人士对预算决定也感到失望，这些决定允许超大规模数据中心建设现场化石燃料发电设施，且未增加对能源公司的意外所得税。
BP profits hit $8.5bn (£6.4bn) in the three months to September – an 18-year high – while Shell doubled its profits to $10.8bn.
英国石油公司（BP）在截至9月的三个月里利润达到85亿美元（64亿英镑）——创18年新高——而壳牌的利润翻倍至108亿美元。首相和财政大臣的捍卫者否认政府放缓了应对气候变化的努力。
Defenders of the prime minister and the chancellor deny the government has slowed its efforts to tackle climate change.
他们表示，削减绿色计划最初是由基尔·斯塔默政府同意的，而现政府决定取消电费增值税将激励消费者摆脱燃气。
They say the cuts to green schemes were originally agreed by Keir Starmer’s government, and that this government’s decision to cut VAT from electricity bills would incentivise consumers to move away from gas.
部长们还在制定计划，从电费中移除更多附加费，并改通过税收为环保计划提供资金，绿色运动人士可能会欢迎这一举措。
Ministers are also working on plans to remove more levies from electricity bills and to fund environmental schemes through taxation instead, something green campaigners are likely to welcome.
地球之友气候运动人士丹尼·格罗斯说：“虽然财政大臣阻止了新附加费堆加到能源账单上，但他未能移除那些让电价居高不下的现有附加费。这些费用应转移到一般税收中，以更公平地分担成本。”对于焦虑的工党议员来说，关于罗斯班克油田和零排放汽车（ZEV）强制令的决定至关重要。
Danny Gross, a climate campaigner at Friends of the Earth, said: “While the chancellor stopped new levies being piled on to energy bills, he failed to remove the remaining ones that keep electricity so expensive. These should be moved to general taxation to share costs more fairly.”For nervous Labour MPs, the decisions over Rosebank and the Zev mandate are key.
法恩布勒的盟友称她希望叫停该油田，而希利身边的人士说他希望油田推进。据报道伯纳姆站在了财政大臣一边，但首相府官员坚称首相乐见法恩布勒自行决定。最终结果预计将在年底前出炉。
While Fahnbulleh’s allies say she wants to block the oilfield, those close to Healey say he wants it to go ahead Burnham is reported to have sided with the chancellor, but No 10 officials insist the prime minister is happy for Fahnbulleh to make her own decision. The final outcome is due before the end of the year.
部长们将于本周会面，敲定2030年电动汽车目标，据《卫报》了解，该目标将削减约四分之一。
More immediately, ministers will meet this week to finalise the 2030 EV target, which the Guardian understands will be cut by about a quarter.
同样，首相身边的人士表示，这一决定反映了商业现实，且并非由他做出，因为他因妻子在一家电动汽车充电公司任职而回避了相关决策。
Again, those close to the prime minister say the decision reflects business reality, and has not been his to make after he recused himself because of his wife’s role at an EV charging company.
但对于其党内部分人士而言，这又是一个迹象，表明在做出关键判断时，气候问题每次都被置于次要位置。
But for some in his party, it is another sign that when key judgment calls are being made, the climate is coming second every time.
一名议员表示：“我认为安迪关心气候，但如果他做出的每个决定最终都损害气候，那么他的初衷其实并不重要。”
One MP said: “I think Andy cares about the climate, but if every decision he makes ends up damaging it, his intentions don’t really matter.”
