“As a graduate of St Andrews, I take a keen interest in its doings. Scotland’s oldest university has started a new tradition. Every winter day it feeds trees into a furnace in a disused paper mill, then pumps the hot water four miles down the road to warm its laboratories. It calls this sustainability. A more skeptical observer might call it an expensive way to set fire to forests and public funds at the same time.” (11/11/26)
