You may well be right but literally shackling ourselves to destructive deadlines when the technology doesn’t yet meet the rhetoric or ideology is not a wise decision, it will not make us world leaders in anything other than just like now with the cost of energy. 

I agree with the deadlines but on the other hand you need to force the tech or it wont move forward. Unless there is another space race or something.

I think you are probably right but , I don't think they are particularly " green " . The mining of the lithium then transporting it across the globe in stonking great ship is a massive carbon foot print . Then there is the pollution from the rubber they get through ( being heavier than the equivalent petrol/diesel car ) then the disposal of spent batteries all adds up . Hydrogen is the way to go I recon . The only thing that comes out of the exhaust is H2O . I am talking about liquid hydrogen direct into the tank not a hydrogen powered electric . I believe Toyota and some others have an engine that will run on hydrogen in a similar way to petrol .   

I dont about about how green it is as there are probably a million and one factors, EV no transporting of fuel from the drilling to the petrol station etc.

I think (just today) you’ve called another member a fool, a dumb prick and a liar.

 

I think this is a fairly standard day for you.

 

You’re not debating, you’re just getting off on insulting people.

 

 

 

 

Not true at all as well you know the dumbest prick in the room was a generalisation in regards the UK going headlong down the foolish net zero route at all costs, you shouldn’t let your animosity get the better of you. The liar comment in regards SP is a 100% factual statement.

There’s enough factual evidence around and anyone with a set of eyes living here can see the damage this lunacy is causing.

You sure about that?

 

"You need to get those Chinese told eh "

 

As above, 2 things to reiterate, JonsonDs default is to sink to the lowest possible, to compete at the bottom of the rung instead of striving to be the best, and the response that is just basically an insult laden pile of drivel shows no ability to discuss any point.

How can you be the best when you have nothing which is exactly the route the UK is going. That’s not leadership it’s dumb arse stupidity. 
No need to preach to the masses if you reply to a post SP.

Should have at least given the Rwanda scheme a go. Cancelled on first day and here we are with record levels of illegal crossings. I’d say there’s a connection between the two.

I’ve told you before SP, I let the first comment slip but keep kids and families out of your shite on here. You have no knowledge of them and shouldn’t be commenting from behind your convenient veil of anonymity about them. Using families to try and get a bite is a total wanker trick.
