This about sums up the Green arguments for future energy.
Coal and gas - bad for the environment - ban them.
Hydro - can't flood pretty valleys - no more.
Wind - ugly and harm birds - ban them.
Nuclear - radiation, bombs, waste - ban them.
Solar - requires vast areas of land - uneconomical and would displace
food crops - ban them.
Solar - rooftop - OK as long as the neighbours don't object. Go to bed
when it gets dark.
Wave energy - harms fish and might cause changes in coastal erosion -
ban them
Tidal power - damages vital (for birds) wetlands - ban them.
