I wonder how much energy it takes to source, recycle/extract the copper, and covert into wind turbines and solar panels?
Really? We’ve reached the ‘scavenge the copper from an old Casio calculator’ already?
This country has peaked. It’s all downhill from here.
Time to get that old wartime spirit and Dig for Britain.
Mmmm I love subsidising electrical power for everyone else whilst we pay 3x more
Another scare mongering statement so they can raise the price.
Is the government run by crackheads? Maybe they should just hire them. They love stealing copper wire.
Rip out the electrical system in 10 Downing street and have them live by candle light for a month and i’ll believe that it’s imperative. “You must ask what you can do for your country, but not me, because i’m the prime minister and i’m far too important”.
Here’s an idea, why not , you know, pay people for recycling and share the savings? Like every other European country does with bottle deposit schemes and the like?
I will not be parting with my bags and bags of cables. I’m the one people ask if I have a random lead for this or that. That is my status, need a lead? Ask Sean. That is all.
