Re: Windfarm anyone?

Like you G, I feel that tidal energy would be much more sensible.
I am not against green energy, but I am against being brainwashed to accept these hideous monstrosities blighting our land, and us having the idea that we must accept them because they are eco friendly........I have a Royle-ism answer to that theory.
These wind farms are not efficient....and the wind isn't always blowing....and if it blows above a certain level they turn the damned things off(or at least that is what I have read).
The water around our island is forever moving...movement causes energy...energy which we could and should harvest.
Sewage also produces energy...we should use that too.
