Perhaps if you could give it a green name spin and avoid the use of the word reactor.

One might be able to reduce the negative effects if you go for Vertical Axis Wind Turbines, and possibly ones in fully enclosed nacelles, similar in some ways to Persian windmills. I'd still like to know can you fit them underground at the top of mountain ridges to catch the air going through the mo...

I was chatting someplace with some greens about solar panels and they showed me this graph which proves how solar PV production causes so much more CO2 than even nuclear... Suddenly even solar is looking like its getting a bad name. :-( (And with me having just fitted one of the infernal devices ont...

> You're arguing against some vague mass of people

Just as people mention Iran as some vague mass of people..


Are we all not just victims of our own countries sins, or are we guilty of aiding and abetting..

I thought we was all spokespeople..

> I DON'T THINK THERE IS A PROBLEM. I don't think there is a problem either, but its probably sensible to be cautious and do things in a more green way anyhow, so agree with some of the measures being talked about, but others I reckon are taking things too far. (Eg. increase public transport option ...

I'm for improvement, but when you single out specific countries like for example Iran, and say its much worse there than here, yet here was probably suffer more gay people being killed and the authorities doing nothing about it, sure its less legal, but its happening. I don't mind the finger of blam...

I wonder when we might get more details.

Oh indeed, there are many other ways than bombs, so it can be hard to figure out how many degrees more evil one approach is to another..

Its just the UK seems to spend an awful lot of time shipping bombs from its airfields and naturally that seemed to be the first thing that came to mind..

Maybe your right, maybe the one that uses the most bombs to kill the most people is the most evil..

I think something which would help is to lower the requirements for mass production before it becomes profitable, so even if you build only a few, you still make a profit. In the old days when labour was cheap, and machines expensive, we moved towards machines, now that machines are quite expensive,...

Education alone I don't think will do it, if you have inequality between groups where one is gaining far more than the other for no good reason. I see the same thing happening here where new bands of immigrants are hated by existing groups because the newcomers are getting special privilages, like h...

> We need to make the cars ourselves and keep the money at home.

Agreed.


> if you have a better idea why not start your own car company?

Always the best answer

Isn't that how most companies come about in the first place ?


I'm suprised there isn't an open source electric car project..
