Oh er! My comment " Solar is the way to go but it wont happen overnight" wasn't meant to be taken literally it was meant as a play on words.

Am I missing something? I cannot understand why tidal use is not being used to generate electricity.
Tides happen twice day without fail (24/7 x 365 days a year) and it's FREE. If flowing water can be used to power hydro/electric dams, then why not sea water? The relevant turbines could surely be hidden beneath the water, unlike unsightly wind turbines and surely not that expensive to maintain. This Country is very fortunate in being an island, we have 1,000 miles plus of coast line with many estuaries and inlets. I have seen nothing mentioned on the current media about this amazing available resource. Please DEBATE! |

If only half of what Climate protesters say is correct then we as a planet are in serious bother. Sadly though unless there's a profit to be made nothing will change and as Private Fraser says ' we're doomed'.
Sad to think that our planets future seems to be dependent upon the balance sheet of multi national corporations and the governments beholden to them.

If it was possible, it would have been done already. To me the only realistic solution to meeting our energy needs without creating emissions is nuclear. Cue lots of frothing about Fukushima and Chernobyl, but to me there's a fairly obvious difference between either of those (very different) events and a modern European nuclear industry. The French seem to have done pretty well out of it for decades already. |
