  1. If you think...... "Finally, a sensible answer"....... was sarcasm I need to look up the definition.
  2. I guess it is in the nature of the beast......555
  3. What a truly pathetic and child like comment......do really think I am going to spend days researching a topic I know little about in order to counter ridiculous statements from the hard of thinking on this forum.....grow up.
  4. Wind turbines are generally considered highly effective for reducing carbon emissions. 1. Carbon Payback Time: The carbon payback period for wind turbines—the time it takes for a turbine to offset the carbon emissions produced during its manufacturing, transportation, installation, maintenance, and eventual decommissioning—typically ranges from six months to a year, depending on the turbine model and location. This is significantly shorter than the turbine’s operational lifespan, which often exceeds 20 years. After this period, the energy produced is virtually carbon-neutral. 2. Manufacturing and Installation Emissions: Wind turbine production and installation involve emissions, primarily from the steel, concrete, and other materials used in their construction. While this initial carbon cost can be high, it is considerably lower than fossil fuel-based energy sources. Studies have found that even accounting for these emissions, wind power emits only about 11-14 grams of CO₂ per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of electricity, far lower than coal (820 g CO₂/kWh) or natural gas (490 g CO₂/kWh). 3. Maintenance and End-of-Life: Wind turbines have minimal ongoing carbon emissions during operation since they do not require fuel combustion. End-of-life considerations, like recycling turbine blades, are a current environmental challenge. However, recycling initiatives and innovations are in development to minimize the environmental footprint at this stage. 4. Offsetting Fossil Fuels: Each megawatt-hour of wind power generated displaces carbon emissions from fossil fuels, providing a long-term reduction in greenhouse gases. Countries with significant wind energy capacity, such as Denmark and Germany, have documented substantial drops in their national carbon footprints due to wind power’s displacement of coal and gas. Overall, wind turbines offer a low-carbon, renewable energy solution that contributes to carbon neutrality and is essential to global decarbonization efforts. Though challenges exist (especially related to materials and recycling), advances in technology and policy continue to improve the sustainability of wind energy .
  5. "I am left leaning in my political view".......555
  6. Do I know all their names? Have I got their previous addresses?
  7. As everyone knows................ all generalisations are rubbish....(that's a joke).
  8. Goddek is a swivel eyed loon....... https://www.panaccindex.info/p/profile-simon-goddek-fafo-award-winner
  9. Only to be located in remote areas, otherwise they cause cancer in sharks and electrocute birds.
  10. Hard to imagine how you could defame Trump.....but anyway.... The level of fault required for defamation depends on whether the plaintiff is a public or private figure: • For public figures (celebrities, politicians), the standard is actual malice, meaning the defendant knew the statement was false or acted with reckless disregard for its truth. So I doubt any action re: defamation would be successful.
  11. I assume it is quite slow as someone has to go through them all and remove both votes for Trump.
  12. Half?.....Only 72 million surely?.......maybe only 65 million if you don't count all the false ballot papers
  13. Yes, some Jewish people supported Hitler and the Nazi Party. Early in the Nazi movement, a small number of Jewish Germans hoped that aligning with certain nationalist or anti-Communist aspects of the party might protect their status in Germany or keep them from persecution. Some members of the Verband nationaldeutscher Juden (Association of German National Jews), led by Max Naumann, advocated for Jewish assimilation into German society and even supported aspects of Nazi ideology, including nationalism and a strong Germany. They believed that their loyalty and service to Germany would be recognized, mistakenly thinking that Hitler’s antisemitism was more about rhetoric than policy.
  14. https://cdn.jwplayer.com/previews/6h8GCzqg Straight from the heart (in a blind panic)......obviously no teleprompter...NOT......555
  15. Oh! So he's taking out Trump supporters in the rubbish truck?......I see.....pure genius.
  16. Trump taking out the Puerto Rico. What genius on his team thought this would be a good photo shoot the day after......?
  17. Well that should compensate for all the people they've eaten.......555
  18. Doesn't sound much different to temples, village heads, local markets, funerals, weddings or 'special' prayer days..........what's the fuss?
  19. Looks like they might fly direct to LHR, but use Qatar for LGW....???
  20. Don't feel like you're just be flushing your life away?
  21. Just looked mid Jan, return mid Feb....LGW to BKK direct, hand luggage only.....BKK to LGW one connection......with luggage?? Cheapest around £890.....so not much different to Emirates or Qatar
  22. Sure I was there and saved the clip. It must be on my Amazon account......hold your breath whilst I find it.
