[QUOTE="lindisfel, post: 2228698, member: 57698"] Hi Oldvatr, I can't see how we can produce enough clean electricity from environmentally innocuous sources. Their making a big assumption. We would have to have a massive increase in cheap nuclear power or perhaps fusion will save us, or some new heat source or way of producing power from the Sun. Some of the mitigating measures that are allowed are rubbish. Carbon credits are just fig leaves and countries cheat. I think there will be a massive protest when the rich political class take away cheap power from the masses and fuel poverty hits a high percentage of the population. It takes a long time to develop new technologies. They have not as yet been able to upscale carbon capture and things seem remarkably quiet on that front. It would be nice to have the power from fossil carbon and bury the greenhouse gasses in a big hole. If we were to use ground source or air source heat pumps in a home environment they require the input of a lot of expensive electricity to run! Someone was saying recently at present they are c.£25000 per system installation. D. [/QUOTE]
