Re: A tax on lightbulbs.
Good memory entwisi. However the overall effect is that they absorb more CO2 than they create.
Granted that we have to find some other way to dispose our rubbish other than in landfill but our current ways are not cost effective or even efficient. The only material that we should re-cycle is glass, metal and vegetable matter into compost, burn the rest.
The technology is available to burn everything, use the heat to either heat buildings or produce electricity and control the CO2 emissions. There is even a rig out at sea that is pumping CO2 underground.
But since when did the powers that be think a scheme through before implementing it?
