Crazy isnt it..?

The tunnel was apparently partly finished and yet we hear nothing about it now....it would generate 7 times the current power it does now...Seriously what happened..?

Of the countries with the highest use of renewable energy nearly all have their highest component in Dams and hydroelectric systems...Why..because there is no better or more efficient way to generate reliable and cheap power..

Out of all the plans and proposals by our government in the pursuit of renewables there is no talk of upgrading or building new dams...plenty of smaller pumped hydro project proposals but no actual highly efficient river dams ...but as 28 mentions they are happy to turn the countryside and ocean into an industrial wasteland of inefficient turbines and solar...

I just dont get it at all..

Anyway 53mm here in the past 24, mostly last evening in some quite heavy showers...

and nah 28 this government is the worst and seems hell bent on putting us back in the dark ages..

Are they messing up your yard a bit SM..?What stage are they up to..?
