The future is here!

The future is here!
As each day here in Britain, we feel and experience the results of Russia’s war on Ukraine. This has resulted in a rapid price in energy bills due to the self-imposed lowering of Russian gas imports. So here is one of the main attempts that the whole of Europe is hoping to compensate with: wind power! These in Lincolnshire (taken with a long lens) are what are known as offshore windfarms (yes these are in the sea) and that is where most of our wind produced electric energy comes from. On-shore farms are set in our countryside. It is promised that many more of each will have to be constructed.

NB - this description changed from original.

I just meant that it is not clean energy, some are cleaner than others but say they are clean is a lie. Clean energy doesn’t exist… yet…

No wind!!! It might be nice for a short time but I don't think I would like that very much Eva. We have these over every hill it seems nowadays and the look often like an invading armada when out at sea but they do provide much need electricity at not a big price to our ozone layer. I think you are right about Don Quixote -he tried to fight many things!

Best Wishes. Herb

This is the best way to go for our electricity here in the north of Britain, as you know Gordon. Not much point in having solar cells with our meagre sunshine. I'm not keen on Nuclear and our hills are not big enough for hydro. Maybe we all need to go back to the middle ages!

Keep safe. Herb
