What pisses me off about this article is how it keeps talking about "degrees" and about Europe, but then you find out it's F degrees and not C degrees if you look at the graphs.

Please use SI units, but in any event, please place units next to numbers!

They also don't give units for the price of natural gas.

Minor thing: Celsius isn’t SI either.

Degrees Centigrade is an SI derived unit, just like Joule and Watt
