Seriously though, people on community service or in open prisons should be doing that work. So the bloke who is employed to do it is out of a job...

QuoteAt last, maybe the whole picture will start being considered:Did you watch the video in the article that you linked to?Electric cars are about a reduction in CO2 emissions. It’s a about decarbonisation. We don’t have a choice in this – the world needs to drastically reduce it’s use of fossil fuels.An that’s a 5-year-old video. In the UK, which has made fairly rapid advances in decarbonising electrical generation the difference between and electric and petrol/diesel will be even greater – considerably so. http://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=5&v=K9m9WDxmSN8&feature=emb_title

I will consider electric vehicles when upgrading my car or bike. Progress seems slow at the moment in terms of available vehicles and infrastructure – far too slow.
He can have a job supervising the litter pickers. Instead of one picker, you have a team or 5-10. MEans 5-10 times as much rubbish gets cleared each day for the same price as before. Result I think
A lot of electricity is made by burning coal.
QuoteA lot of electricity is made by burning coal.Not that long ago most of the electricity in the UK was made by burning coal.The UK no longer uses coal to generate electricity.Scotland’s electricity is now 70-80% renewable, the target is 100% and which much increased capacity to take care of increasing demand from, for example, electric cars.At the end of the day the world has only one single energy source – the sun.
The point is that renewable is not equal to "not damaging the environment".
Getting half the electricity we need from the Sun alone is still not realistically feasible for all I know.
