It's hard to to be stuck on stupid when other places are being
rational.

The UK isn't being rational. A 30 year target is pretty meaningless.
How are they going to achieve it?

Also, the current trend is to promote impractical solutions such as
wind. Wind is too variable, we need a reliable power source for
winter heating.


as of 8am, nuclear is stuck on 4.3gw, the day seems calm yet wind is
giving 2.9 gw, solar is giving an estimated 1.2gw, so pouring
billions into nuclear seems rather silly when wind, solar and tide
can give more for less without the residual danger and cost.

You're always quick to tell posters that they aren't on topic, so
WTF

has your post got to do with cycling.


I think Mr Cheerful has cracked, and is admitting that an eco-lifestyle
is the prefered way forward.


I am against nuclear power stations, they seemed like a good idea in the
50's, but have not panned out as they promised.

I am not aginst bicycles, just the ****s that use them so badly.
