Where’s the fractional distillation, shipping and extraction for the fossil fuels? Or does that get missed off completely? I always direct people to this excellent video showing exactly what really happens youtu.be/1oVrIHcdxjA?is=nWA3…

I do, please have a read. The wind farm has now been upgraded, I’ve attached a pic of the improvements. I look forward to your thought. Source:%20Wind%20Power%20Monthly share.google/n7hr25dvdGpLSsI…

Our heating has finally come on after what feels like an eternity. Luckily our @OctopusEnergy heat pump is ticking over nicely keeping us all nice and toasty and it’s being powered solely from today’s excess solar. It feels a bit like top notch energy recycling ♻️ 👌🏼

I'm comfortable that crude oil extraction is 4.4 billion metric tonnes annually and we exract far more iron ore than precious metals, what I think you're refereing to. However, anything extracted for battery can be reused, recycled or repurposed, how does that work for crude oil that we set on fire to move about? See the graphic, hopefully that'll put things in to perspective for you.

Nope, nobody counts them. They’re seen as a tax fiddle and not a lot else. Also, we don’t need to do that with figures like this. Every month that gap is decreasing. ICE car sales have been in decline since 2017, it’s only going one way. Especially with people like Trump in power.

There has been a 35% increase since the beginning of the Iranian conflict. This may help you. This will not ever change.

You’ve seen this and thought ‘this looks good and will get some clicks, I’ll copy it and post it’. Meanwhile you’ve demonstrated a lack of understanding about exchange rates and inflation, and that Trump is an utter cnut!!
