O/T net zero=net loss

Someone's going to have to come up with an electric aircraft that is capable of keeping itself airborne for at least 8 hours with 250 passengers on board , the time it takes to fly from Manchester to New York for instance .

Long haul to Australia would involve stopping a couple of times for recharging which shouldn't be anymore than an hours job .

You'd obviously hope the charge left function in the cockpit would be reasonably accurate of course !!

Current opinion within the aircraft industry is that electric/battery power is never, ever going to get to that point. The upper limit for electric aviation is likely to be the sort of 70 passenger turboprops you might fly to Guernsey or the Isle of Man on. For larger aircraft the bigger effort is going into sustainable jet fuel and eventually hydrogen.

Meanwhile thousands of acres of Greenbelt farm land will disappear under a huge solar farm planned for Conisborough and Rotherham.
No point in protesting Miliband has the final say and states he will not have NIMBYs and Councils stand in the way of net zero aspirations.

The entire agenda is one big tissue of lies easily seen through by those with an enquiring mind.

Please Google Whitestone Solar Farm
It is all there to see.
Apologies not very good at posting links.

Thanks for that. Very interesting to know as we are considering relocation back to that area and in fact Mrs. CA has been over looking at places this last week close to those areas identified.

Wouldn't it be better to utilise the thousands of acres of industrial wasteland surrounding Rotherham/Sheffield?

Hopefully these will be given the go ahead so the solar and wind temporary none recycle eye sores can become a thing of the past.

It may be a contaminated land thing. Large scale solar farms are frequently used to graze sheep as a way of preventing vegetation growing to a height that shades the panels. The alternative is to spray large amounts of expensive herbicides

Understood. I'm guessing brains far better than mine have considered it but if the panels were close enough or on a structure similar to but lower and much larger than a house roof then surely nothing would grow under them. Underneath my shed is testament to that.

There?s a good second hand one available not too fat away!

Maybe Japan or Canada could donate pieces to fill the gaps 😂

Keep believing that the 97% of energy shortages can be made up by clean manufacturing by 2030 guys!

Absolutely hilarious but keep paying additional taxes to those serving their leaders!

If all fails eat the sheep that have kept the grass down 😂
