Subject: RE: Hydrogen the future power
As I have said before, on another thread, the answer lies in educating people to use FAR LESS electricity !! The house in which I lived until I was 22 ( in 1969 ) had half a dozen low-Wattage light-bulbs, a TV set, and an electric iron.There were no other electrical appliances of any sort in the house. No deep-freeze !! No 'fridge !! ( we had a "meat-safe", a perforated steel cabinet,bolted to the wall in the back yard ! )---No immersion heater !! No computers !! No dish-washer !! No toaster !! No sandwich-maker !! No air-conditioner !!No trouser-press !! No food-mixer or bread-maker !!No electric drills, sanders, or polishers ! No microwave oven ! No Wellington- boot warmer ! No hair-dryer or curling -tongs ! No massagers or foot-spas !!No CD player !! No electric kettle or coffee-percolator ! No spin dryer ! No tumble dryer ! No " Hoover " !! No turbo-fan electric heater !! No electric carving-knife or tin-opener ! No washing-machine !!No "security lights " !! No electric lawn-mowers,composters,blowers,strimmers,pruners,hedge-trimmers etc. !! Of course, without all this shite, life was really, really hard, wasn"t it ??? Was it F--- !!! It was harder work, and more " inconvenient " , but Oh Boy !! Did we produce a lot less pollution !!!   And HYDROGEN ?? How do you suppose the government will tax THAT ??? (which they assuredly will !! )
