    I just bought a battery powered car. Can't go anywhere for 12 hours. I am excited though.

    You would be rooted without coal & nuke. Your renewable crap will never replace either. EVER. And you bloody know it. Either that or you really are frikken stupid.

    Exactly Sherlock. Demand is higher, output lower. As I said earlier, there is no free lunch. And even at it's peak, 24% is pretty p**s poor. *People like you, peddling this garbage, are just driving up our energy bills and for absolutely no gain. A pox on you. *Well, a gain for...

    Summer in the UK. All good. But what are your winter figures ? Still 26% ? And tomorrow when you might have cloud cover and or no wind ? Wind turbines don't work with high windspeeds either. You are either delusional or on the renewable money train with shares in wind mills. Also, apart...

    Less moving parts. Yes. All fabulous. Just that the battery tech is not there and batteries need to be recharged, are hard to dispose of, and don't last that long before they need replacing. Crazy sh*t.

    I too worked for a milko as a kid. Riding on the electric milk float making a few bob. Some extra pocket money. Funny how they haven't progressed much or taken off in almost 50 years. I'd actually forgotten all about them until I was reminded of them on here tonight. Do any still exist...

    On a lighter note, a year or two back, there was a group of those lefty, greenie scientists, (you know the ones, all on the government teat) who decided to charter an ice breaker for a couple of months to have a good old knees up & bludge, (at the Aussie tax payers expense) to 'study' the...

    So, according to the loony left & the tree huggers we are all doomed. Do you lot honestly then think you can do anything to change it ? The only thing that's changed is my skyrocketing bloody power bill as I sit here in sunny Melbourne, freezing my nuts off. Funny S**T.

    Global temps haven't been trending upwards at all. Even if that were true, do you honestly believe this could all happen in the short space of time since the 'industrial revolution' ? A mere 'blip' in the time the earth has been around ? There is but one thing that dictates the climate on...

    Ah, nuclear is good. We don't have that here. Very conservative lot in many ways. And yet we have uranium coming out of our ears. We need a Sizewell or three down here. The windmills, solar panels and batteries though ? No way. Hopless and inefficient.

    No Free Lunch = You can't get out what you don't put in. Batteries, solar panels & those hideous windmills just don't cut the gig. Trust me, I live in Australia. We are going to hell in a hand basket down here because of loony, green policy. And the hypocrisy of it all. Have you...

    In a miniscule, experimental way. They will never become mainstream or ever be able to replace the I.C.E, same as windmills/farms and 'renewable' energy is all loopy greenie fantasy. Physics 101 tells us there is no free lunch. And for example of the 'driverless' car. What happens with...
