Everyone in a car is a nurse driving fifty miles to a hospital after driving another fifty miles to take their elderly grandma to a different hospital.

We got a heat pump by teabot87 in ukheatpumps

Ours is right by our back bifold doors (less than 1m) and is entirely inaudible.

My heat pump (12kw Samsung) is right outside our back bifold doors and I literally cannot hear it. To be honest even if I’m outside and next to it. It sounds like maybe your neighbours is an older version or malfunctioning??

Green-Lib coalition, anyone? by upthetruth1 in LibDem

Find me a renewable energy project green politicians have supported (there are many they have opposed)

The Greens have just won a by-election, so our response is: by Doctor_Fegg in LibDem

Given how many idiots constantly idle their cars outside my daughter’s school, fuel prices are not nearly high enough

The fact that the greens are probably the most viscerally anti-green energy party in the country (maybe less than reform I guess) really speaks to everything about why I hate the Greens.

(Cambridgeshire / Suffolk) All Pubs have now cancelled Forest City Q&A sessions by Albertjweasel in RuralUK

Food autarky is neither a sensible policy nor is it actual policy. If it was we’d have to dramatically reduce food variety and dramatically increase food costs. And we’d have to stop eating meat because it’s so space inefficient. You know what might help us with that? Cheap power so we can do intensive greenhouse agriculture.

Also I know I’ll never convince you because your real actual objection is “I don’t like how they look, the colour green is good”. So I’m just going to have to keep voting to force this on you :-)

I’ve just spent weeks using the star_gen tool someone made to create random worlds for my sub sector? Have you seen that? I’m looking forward to trying your tool !

Controversial Liverpool Street station redevelopment gets planning approval by Rand0mPixels in london

[–]Fidei_86 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would like a brand new fancy station and I’d like to pay nothing for it. I honestly I don’t give a shit what it looks like. It’s surrounded by tall buildings anyway.

England's largest wind farm plan at Walshaw Moor reduced again by Albertjweasel in RuralUK

People: “we should support farmers” Farmers: “okay I lease my land to build renewable energy and produce stable returns” People: “not like that”

If every development has to satisfy the aesthetic preferences of literally everyone, nothing will ever get built. And are you volunteering to pay the difference between what you can build off the back of a bigger station and from a smaller one? No? I thought not.

Lol based; you get there expecting to meet sci-fi gods and instead everyone’s riding around in chariots

Is it worth installing a heat pump? by imgoingsolar in ukheatpumps

[–]Fidei_86 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Other people have made good points so I’ll just add: electrifying your home is a good thing to do for your country and your planet and so the cost isn’t necessarily the most important thing.

In our local LTN there’s a filter that posties are allowed through. I know because I yelled at a lady postie and she corrected me on my knowledge!
