| Re: proposed Severn barrage
Nick,
What do you suggest, apart from energy saving appliances, square miles of windfarms & hectares of solar pannels. Think what would be left of the wilderness, what wilderness. Without new Nuclear Power plants being built over the next 10 years and more major investment into Wave/Tidal energy production now, we could be left with power stations at the end of their usefulness & a lack of energy production that could spell a major crisis in the running of our lives all because we were afraid of the Big NP. There was a time when I was against NP but over the years I've come to know more about it. The scare stories in the media, it will lead to more bombs, Bxxxxxks!
At the moment, right now, we have to reduce not only CO2 emissions but all GHGs if we are to slow down GW. Remember, what we put out today on Earth takes about 20-30yrs. to reach the Stratosphere, aircraft get it nearly there in just a few minutes. So what is the way forward?
Am going off-line for dinner, my stomach's rumbling.  |
