I got it that something needs to be done but when the rest of world is doing little or nothing why are we making our lives more difficult?



The UK has always bent over backwards to appease the the Climate Change Zealots.. where as the rest of the world say yes and do nothing.

It's not just wet wood & bagged coal! There are big changes afoot with rebated fuels (red diesel & bio-diesel from waste oil ) from the first of April 2022 due to the climate change carbon zero policy.


I have a friend who is a constant cruiser on a narrowboat & I was going to ask him how he will be affected because he uses red diesel for propulsion & heating.

Other industries and applications that will no longer be able to fuel with rebated red diesel include:
  • Leisure;
  • Manufacturing;
  • Mining and quarrying;
  • Oil and gas extraction;
  • Road maintenance;
  • Airport and seaport operations;
  • Plant hire;
  • Logistics and waste management;
  • Any commercial heating and haulage—refrigeration units on lorries will no longer be able to run on red diesel.
