You've got the economics of the oil price backwards in that sentence "The energy sector is in the midst of a protracted decline. This is good news for the environment."! A higher price would discourage even more consumption of course, benefiting the environment more. This is why economists support Pigovian taxes.

Small note!

> net migration peaked at 906k in June 2023

It might be helpful to clarify that 906k number. My best guess is this means it was 906k/year over the course of the month, but I'm not sure if that's right.
