Coal And Aviation And Wind

Gordon Brown is bringing out this manifesto for wind energy in the same fortnight as he's urging Saudi Arabia to extract even more oil.

I don't want to be skeptical. I really don't.

But, the government has to start talking about using less oil as a country. We need less rhetoric from the DTI/Chris about "clean coal." Ruth Kelly needs to rein in aviation expansion.

Otherwise, all these emissions reductions in clean energy proposals announced today will be swamped.
