Explosion in Ilford

Actually, I feel lucky that we still have gas, having heard this government's intentions re. 'Nett Zero'.

If they get their way, I can see a future without the use of anything combustible: gas, petrol, diesel, even wood.  The really amusing thing is that they genuinely think that they are capable of actually preventing the use of anything that could pollute the atmosphere.

One bright idea, of course, was to stop all coal extraction and use and, instead, to import tons of wood from Canada to burn in our Drax power station, presumably on the basis that burning wood and using diesel fuel to transport it across the Atlantic would achieve their 'Nett Zero' targets.

In addition, they appear not to be aware of places like China which continue their practice of burning fossil fuels, and fail to understand that our minuscule changes in this country are enormously overwhelmed by what happens in many other countries and, consequently, is of absolutely no real value at all.

They already grow trees to chop down and make into pellets for pellet burners.

Ism't  that the stuff that those Biomass boilers are supposed to burn?
