Never rejoin under somebody that's already fired you. They are being forced to do it and will fire you again at the first chance. Only go back if the management has changed. In this case, that means "If doge is gone".

I don't think it's a particularly cryptic measure. The UKs peak carbon per kWh was at some point. Since then it's dropped at a percentage rate higher than anywhere else. The biggest thing has been the elimination of coal even
