The greenies will be along shortly to tell us paying for wind turbines to turn makes sense as does 0.1 deg C rise in temperature every billion years should make us piss our pants with fear.

Yep, and seeing as Dutch businesses have been earning quite a lot of money out of 'green energy' it's possibly the most crass of a long line of stupid policies produced by the shower of imbeciles that were elected last year.Originally posted by BlasterBates View Post
Wherever the debate on CO2 leads, this will make the country dependent on buying uranium at ever increasing prices from saharan islamist dictatorships. Oh, and world uranium supplies are expected to run out at about the same time as oil.
What a shame; NL used to have such sensible governments.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

There is no shortage of Uranium and the price is rock bottom.
Uranium is found all over the world.

The high grade stuff's in turd world tulipholes; other than that, the Australian stuff will all be bought by Asian economies. Add in the costs of building and decomissioning nuclear stations and dealing with the admittedly not entirely rational protests, political processes and court cases and it's a financial non-starter.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostThere is no shortage of Uranium and the price is rock bottom.

Isnt Holland a low lying flat country ?
surely if they abandon their CO2 targets it will make the sea levels rise dramatically and they will be flooded. Thirty years ago the warminsts predicted a 10 m rise in sea levels and its only been the wind turbines that have kept the sea at bay.
This is madness by the Dutch and this time next year they will be drowning in a boiling sea or being eaten by migrating Polar bears
what we need is a statistical giant to come along and explain it all to us. oh here'e one now
