The energy crisis: what is the solution?

We could import salt water crocodiles and strap solar panels to their backs. Obviously you will need a garden for the crocodile to meander about.

Burglaries would probably go down too.

Viz comic cartoonist Davey Jones has come up with a possible solution to the fuel bill crisis:

Everybody emigrate to Queensland, its as big as western Europe, constant sunshine for solar energy and 7000 klms of coastline.
Leave the cold windy island to the Jocks. :)

Sounds like a bit of a plan!

Tbh don’t ever see us getting off gas for heating the bulk of homes.

Most existing housing stock uses floorboards and is poorly insulated.

Ground source heat pumps etc need to be in new builds with insulated floor slabs and underfloor heating installed for them to work as intended.

Putting one in a 3 bed Semi with floor joists and relatively poor insulation just won’t work at all.

Use a wood burner to heat my home whenever I can tbh.
