    Energy reduction

    I look at my wallet first. How anyone can justify £5 for 9 bog rolls that only see your backside, is, in my opinion, a muppet.

    So we look for eco friendly means, I assume that you only support local business, local foood and local jobs. This is fine, as I support my local Green Grocer and Local Butcher. Except the Green Grocer uses a wholesaler 35 miles away. Their fruit and veg is sourced from growers some of whom are over 180 miles away, (Bristol, to North Lincolnshire, and the East Riding of Yorkshire).

    And I suppose that those on Green Tarif Electricity should look at the real facts on this power, On the coldest day of the year, normally the air is still and the windmills are stationary. Same on the hottest days!

    Then look at Biodiesel Fuels, that take up agriculture lands to supply. Is this done by the so called greenwash facists, to keep the Africans down, by removing fields that can support food growth to suppluy a bigger cash crop to make bio fuel? (Eco Friendly?)

    As for energy reduction, one of the best methods would be to get everyone to go to work on public transport. Good that, where I work that would be a minimum of 23 70 seater Double Deckers, all to arrive at my place and cogest the roads at 8 am and leave at 5. The furthest employee lives at the moment 70+ miles away and this bus would have to leave before 6 in the morning! It would pick me up at about 7 am and them take the best part of a hour to travel 20 miles. That is everyone can get on a suitable route. Now can you imagine these 23 buses at 8 am clogging up the road and restricing other users? And then these buses are then not used for the next nine hours as everyone is at work. Also the drivers of the long distance buses then cannot take me hone, as their working hours would go over the working limit

    And beside, we have all see the congestion caused by darling daughters school bus at 9 am!
