    Global Warming - Tories plan to "de-carbonise" Britain

    You can download their policy document for a "Low Carbon" economy from here:

    So you see, you knuckle-dragging, brain-washed, climate change denialist cretins: one way or another you'll be dragged into reality.

    Hard Brexit now!

    Funny enough, Nick Griffin is a lucid and coherant AGW denier
    maybe we should be worried

        Imagine how much tax revenue will be lost if we convert from burning hydrocarbons in engines to electrically powered cars. Where would the tax revenue come from?

          Eeeekkkk I agree with you.

          Stop that this instant

          Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

          Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

            surely the best way to de-carbonise Britain is to burn all the filthy hydrocarbons so that they no longer exists, then we can move onto the people...

              Create a decentralised energy revolution by introducing a system of feed-in tariffs to encourage micro-generation of electricity;
              According to figures I've seen, micro-generation is way more expensive than macro generation, i.e. a thumping great wind turbine serving many houses versus a piddly little expensive windmill on your roof.

                Yeah yeah, same argument about monster power stations. Big money twisting the statistics.

                Although reality is that a combined heat and power generator locally, i.e. your shed, is way more efficient.
                Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

                  That's an over-simplification to the point whereby it is invalid.

                  In a well designed, energy efficient home, it will produce a surplus of energy. Multiply that by a couple of million, and between them they can be contributing a lot.

                  Also, in small remote communities, micro-generation is the most practicable solution.

                    Do you have any idea of how much power a couple of 50" plasma Tv's consume?
