    Mainly you, I think you'll find Dev



    The price of Crude Oil, or the price of Gasoline ?

    It's probably time to buy a Tesla, as it's going to get uneconomic to pump Oil out of the ground soon.

    If the Governments of the world are serious about keeping warming below an average of 1.5C as is being widely reported today then you'd have to be nuts to buy a gas-powered car today.

    I suspect the decision is likely to be are we going to be powered by electricity or hydrogen in a few years if 1.5C is a genuine possibility.

    Giving up rice could do more to reduce emissions than giving up meat.

    Much of agriculture is geared to producing feed for animals. It would be more land efficient and would use dramatically less resources to eat less meat and other animal based products.

    There's a reasonably interesting documentary (Cowspiracy) produced by Leonardo Dicaprio - I watched it on Netflix.

    That's the first time I've posted a youtube link - it'll be silver and fiat currencies next.

    Graham also didn't notice that Asda did 99.7p/litre last weekend as well.

    I did notice, but it was a weekend gimmick - same as Asda are doing this weekend.

    As I specifically said in the opening post, no gimmicks, no special offers, this is a simple price for Morrisons.
