New Offshore Renewable Energy Wind Farms Announced in UK

[snowhead]

There's 2 choices for the future along with wind.
Either there is some Nuclear, to cope with sudden demands and days with little or no wind.
OR everyone will have to accept a managed supply, where in times of high demand power is cut to households in certain areas, much like in the miners strike.

It’ll be alright; when we stop driving vehicles fuelled by fossil fuels and switched to ev cars, we won’t be contributing to all those noxious gases.

Oh no, I'm starting to rant.

Starting to?

I think the rant started in post 1.

Rightly so.

The black plastic thing was about the tech used to sort it,
(the internet is so well aware - that when they can .. We will still have the old Rumour -"It's a waste of time conspiracy-Stuck in our heads" NET-washed )
..By then will there be any water left to wash plastic !..
(mmmm ..Mince leave my Spag bol ingredients alone )

I watched a programme on TV a but ago that said it still couldn't be recycled. I think it was watchdog

the 5p charge on plastic carrier bags has reduced their use by 85%. a step forward. BK are stopping making plastic toys with kids meals. McD. will soon follow. it's now down to pressurise the big concerns into cutting down on all the unnecessary packaging. and educating the masses into recycling, and applying heavy fines for dumping ( e.g.1 crisp packet out of car window = £50 spot fine if caught), and I'll promise not to chuck my smoke ends out at the traffic lights.

I remember that about black plastic. It doesn’t get recycled because the sorting technology uses a laser or something and just doesn’t see it.

Why do packaging still use polystyrene when moulded cardboard can be used?

I don’t mind amazon or Screwfix delivering in oversized cardboard boxes, as they get used another few times by me, and are readily recyclable...

When are we going to start moving rubbish onto the moon?
Or dumping it down an active volcano and letting the earths own furnaces incinerate it?
