Tensions between Europe and the Kremlin have escalated after Russia cut its gas supply to Poland and Bulgaria. As European countries scramble to look for alternative energy supplies, could we be forced to step away from our climate ambitions in the short term?

On this edition of Sky News ClimateCast, host Samantha Washington speaks to climate correspondent Hannah Thomas-Peter, who is in Germany, the European country most reliant on Russian fossil fuels. Plus, could the UK start burning more coal? We speak to Cumbria reporter Jacob Colley about the Whitehaven coal mine proposal that could be given the green light.
