The Guardian has published corrections and clarifications for errors that appeared in recent articles. In a piece on UK energy policy published on April 24, 2026, the percentage of electricity generated from renewable sources was incorrectly stated as 45%. The correct figure is 54%. The error was introduced during editing and has been corrected online.
Quote Misattribution
In an article about climate activism on April 23, 2026, a quote was misattributed to activist Greta Thunberg. The quote, which read, “We must act now or face irreversible damage,” was actually spoken by environmental scientist Dr. Jane Smith. The Guardian apologizes for this mistake.
Additional Clarification
An article on April 22, 2026, about the London housing market incorrectly stated that average house prices had fallen by 5% in the first quarter of 2026. In fact, prices fell by 3.2%, according to data from the Office for National Statistics. The error has been corrected.
