Thanks, James for alerting us to even more crazyness. I wonder when the real world will bite them so hard they find they can't move anywhere and bring the nation to it's knees with a crippling loss of power. I do not understand the utter hypocrisy where political parties and others rant about the end of the world and using fossil fuels. This does not stop us in any way shape or form sending many thousands times more resources than we would use off to China to burn. We are actually polluting so many more times by supplying them. However because the government's are so weak and corrupt, they realise that if we stopped sending coal and gas to China we would be broke tomorrow. We are also supplying various other minerals for them to refine and turn into military might. Blind, corrupt, gutless and without any moral compass, political machinations are leading us into the pit
But the fuel for these e-buses has to come from an already tottering power grid. A sensible solution would be to have these buses pulled along by a team of horses or bullocks even.
