Reply to: More rape than ever

right...

Anyway I'm pro-nuclear. Anyone who isn't is an idiot

The equivalent of 14 power stations will be needed just to power consumer electronic devices by 2020, the report warned.

By that time televisions on standby will consume 1.4% of all domestic electricity, it predicted.

I like nuclear power generators, and I like stuff being built out to sea, so to me the argument above is meaningless tosh of someone who can't build a coherent case without exaggeration and nonsense correlations (I know you didn't write it diver )

Copy Paste!

Simples!

If you don't want more wind farms and you don't want more nuclear power stations, Get rid of your PC's, your TV's, Games consoles, Mobile Phones and washing machines, tumble driers fridges, freezers and dishwashers. Take cars off the road and stop producing all the extranious carp that we consider a right not a luxury.

But No, The fckwits of this world don't want to give up their toys and status symbols, their "make Life Easy" Gadgets, they'd rather whinge whine and moan day after day that they don't want the power generators that they need so much to be in sight or sited anywhere near them.

They'd rather criticise the technology and the people that provide them with the comforts they so desperately want.

Well as far as I'm concerned, if the whingers don't want them they should f@## off and live in some village in some backwater 3rd world country where they don't have electricity.

At least we wont have to listen to them constantly crying about "those nasty power stations and those nasty turbines and that nasty nuclear radiation and those nasty pylons"

A field full of rape is not natural. It exists due to man exactly as much as the windmill does. And hurts my eyes more, especially when it's sunny!

However the rape only lasts a season (or as many seasons as it takes for the price of the crop to fall) .




BTW I like both as long as they are GM crops as I like some insects.

No, you are putting words into my mouth.

My point is that plants are more natural than 100 feet tall wind turbines.

So am I

I'm also pro wind, wave tidal & solar

Just anti idiots who think that we have solved all of the problems with any of them. and I will only actively support solutions that don't poison the planet for a thousand years or drastically change the environment.

Or just increase their efficiency & usage so we use less energy.

So you're claiming fields are the natural state of the countryside?

No, you are putting words into my mouth.

[d000hg]

I'm not sure they are as unnatural as each other. Rape is an arable crop, wind farms are permanent tall eyesores on an otherwise arable or natural landscape.

[EternalOptimist]

I knew someone who was graped.

there was a bunch of them

[norrahe]

Surely all these yellow eyesores are worse to look at than a few windmills? They're as unnatural as each other and rape is quite a bad allergen.

Tell me about it, I lived in the next village to one of the UKs biggest rape farms this time of year used to be fun
