[quote="thomas davison"]You are correct concerning putting investment into Nuclear Fusion although I suspect it will be more than 15 years before we have a plant anywhere never mind here. While we are waiting we could build small nuclear plants based on thorium technology which is supposed to be a lot safer. Energy efficiency in the homes is really a must but a professor once told me that it would be better for everyone is all homes, if possible, became self contained. They would have enough thermal insulation built in that the heat of your body would keep it warm, solar panels for hot water and electricity, rain catchment and filtration, sewage recycling, an area to grow food internally. The excess electricity would go to produce Hydrogen. Hydrogen for cooking, use in your car and most importantly for water production, which we will really need. Yes we have hundreds of year�s worth of coal in the UK but what we do not have is the will to use neither it nor the men now to hew it out of the ground. I agree coal needs to be used and I also think we should re-nationalise the water industry, electricity, gas, railways. I have experience of working at NaRec in the north east, renewables, where they test all types of ideas, wave, solar, wind etc but I am afraid everything boils down to money and returns for investers, but this can be overcome if there is a will.[/quote] I 100% concur with everything you have just said there Mr Davison, also what you said about Thorium Reactors. Just an Idea about Coal Mining could we introduce a sort of National Service programme for young men to work in the Coal Mines?, using modern coal mining technology its can be hyper efficiant and much safer, The United States uses coal for 50% of its electical energy and only has less than 100,000 coal miners. How many Coal miner would we need?, bearing in mind that in the long term we would want to get off Coal completly.
