What carbon taxes do you pay?

1 from drink. To be fair, there are only one or two I keep in touch with that I went to school with, so they are my main source of info on such things.

Morris Dancing? English folk music? - That's a broad spectrum these days. Regional traditions such as obscure sports.

Paradoxically, pumping sh1t into the rivers and seas can lead to bigger fish. Not that I'm advocating for doing that.

So they were taken along the Nile. Why is this so remarkable?

Which stones were moved hundreds of miles?

That most stone comes from a known source, that it largely dictated what they built there.

And yet we know where the stone comes, the Muqattam Formation matches the limestone of the Giza pyramids. It's low quality stone, which is likely to have influenced them building pyramids, rather than temples or some other fancy structure with pillars that were built elsewhere from better...

Who said they were 200t?

Re-processing nuclear waste not only reduces the amount disposed of, but reduces the amount of time to return to the radioactivity levels of uranium ore to about a few hundred years. This is a non-issue, and one that a facility is already being built in Finland for once through fuel, so the...

When a nuclear plant runs for 60-80years with a capacity factor >92%, the cost of these is insignificant compared to the output over its life. Compare this with offshore wind, where they haven't lasted as long as anticipated (25years or less). Then there's the cost of disposal of the...

You need to read my post again about this.

So you've got no evidence.

We look forward to your evidence to support these claims.

This is still not an issue, and is becoming even less of an issue as time progresses.

There's also the dark forest solution to the Fermi Paradox:

Nuclear isn't as expensive as often claimed. Especially compared with renewables. The issue here is mainly that renewables' cost claims omit the cost of backup, be it storage or a fossil fuel back up. You need that extra capacity to make renewables technically feasible, and this adds to the...

Not acting on this is more expensive in the long run.

Given the trade deficit with the US, we should have had no tariffs, but don't let facts get in the way of a good rant. "That includes the UK, with whom the US has a surplus (by its own calculations) of $12bn. By its own reciprocal tariff formula, the UK should be benefitting from a "negative...

It looks like Hull, many years ago in an industrial area. Going by the fact that its by a river that isn't that wide and certain industrial units. Could be wrong though.
