Reducing Our Carbon Footprint
During a heatwave, you and Auntie Ejo put out a fire below your flat – and Mrs Upperton, the landlady, blames it on your friendly neighbour. You visit Aunti Ejo’s workplace at the National Grid and in the control room, see that a windfarm has been sabotaged. But who’s done this? And why?
