The problem seems to be that no matter what you try to generate
power from any naturally occurring force like wind or tides or even
the sun, you actually are taking power from the earth and if you do
enough of it, you alter the environment in some way, often a way
which was unexpected.

Well, yes. Possibly. But then burning fossil fuels to produce power
doesn't seem to be doing the environment much good either. Except in
the opinion of the various nutcases on here, of course.


So what then is your solution, Our Dave?


Eggs. Basket. Put. Don't. Rearrange to suit. And preferably owned by the
UK. Or rather England, as is likely by then.


of it's a lagoon in Wales, they might not like a "colonial power" owning it.
