........a planet-changing combination.
Recently I started a thread on some research that suggests we should reconsider the way in which electric powered heavy goods vehicles - and possibly motorhomes - are used and recharged when out on the road system.
That thread has now evolved (as these things do,!) to include other environmental issues arising from the way in which humans use energy generally and fossil fuels in particular.
So.......I though it might be useful to have a thread specifically to share views on this more general aspect of Humans and energy.
I've long been interested in the topic - in fact since researching alternative power sources for heating buildings some 50 years ago, though it's not been my field for a very long time indeed.
There's recently been a series of broadcasts on BBCR4 which I found most interesting. It's in four parts, is easy listening and, in my view, well researched.
