A poster on the BBC HYS forum had quite an interesting idea in
that every driver would be rationed with a fuel allowance, say
500 litres of fuel per month, if a driver stuck to his allowance,
fine. If he exceeded it, he'd have to buy his extra ration from
people who'd not used up theirs.
Someone remarked on tv last week that if the whole
of the UK stopped using their vehicles (everything)
today, then it would only take a few months for
China's increase in CO2 production to take our place.

57 days iirc and if the entire continent of australia lived like
aboriginies the china would output their CO2 in 10 months.

don't believe the hype.


OTOH if we simply didn't buy chinese, we could live like kings forever :-)
