The Australian reports that Victorian wind farms, for all their hype and subsidies, have eliminated virtually zero GHGs, thanks to the need for backup coal power stations to keep running at full speed to cope with the fluctuations in wind generation:

They also increased by 50 % their own output of renewable energy, reducing the need for new power stations.

That would reduce the need for new conventional (and polluting) power stations.

And China, while busily building new coalfired power stations at the rate of one a week (it has already overtaken the US as the world number one CO2 emitter), has become the new imperial power in sub-Saharan Africa, using its substantial political and economic muscle to secure control of the raw materials needed for its future growth, in particular African oil and gas reserves.

Maybe we need to be open to the idea that large power corporations were needed for central - station power plants, but that their role in a renewable future will be much smaller.

John Sauven, executive director of Greenpeace, said: «The EU needs to adopt a science - based cap on emissions, ditch plans for dirty new coal plants and nuclear power stations that will give tiny emission cuts at enormous and dangerous cost, end aviation expansion and ban wasteful products like incandescent lightbulbs.»

If you don't want to live near a road, power station or wind farm, surely that's as good a reason as you need to challenge the argument for their construction near you — to ask why it was necessary, rather than take the claims that it is necessary at face value.

Nuclear power stations can be built where the power is needed, unlike, for example, coal - fired power stations that need to be close to the coal mine.

India is also the world's fifth largest greenhouse gas emitter, according to the latest reliable information (CAIT 2007), with a heavy reliance on coal power stations, though India's strong economic growth has meant that demand for electricity often outstrips supply, which has reinforced the need for alternative energy sources.
