My thinking is that we need to be responsible for our carbon footprint yadda yadaa but it isnt fair to tax the hell out of us when the other big economies like the US China and Russia are far worse offenders without any or little comeback.
Heard a statistic the other day that China has a coal powered power station come online every 7 - 10 day and each one is much more pooluting than Drax. Scarey stuff!!!! If you look at Sweden and other Scandanavian countries and their attitude to energy effieciency I think we should go down that road and use new technologies to improve the amount of energy used, with triple glazing compulsory on new builds etc.
