The future is electric………….

[VNA]

Government, local and national, will eventually legislate us off and out of our fossil fuelled machines.

I wouldn’t lose any sleep over it Agricola.  Look headlines like the 200% increase in electric car sales that I saw the other day look great, but 200% of not a lot, is still not a lot.


There is no sign, as yet, of the government taking climate change seriously.  The electricity sector has made some decent progress, though frankly still not half enough.  We are all still pumping massive amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere – and there is little incentive to do otherwise. 



I’d happily have an electric car, but the truth is whilst charging at home would be no problem for me, getting about the country, with the current range available and the charging infrastructure – basically no thanks.


Would love to try out an electric bike – I just wanna know what it is and could be like.  Love it or loath it, you can’t hold back progress.  Plus in this day and age – the truth is the internal combustion engine desperately needs to be consigned to history – it is a hugely energy inefficient way of moving about.


But, naw you still got plenty o years to enjoy yer fossil bike yet.
