  30. And the 'environment lobby' are overlooking one very inconvenient fact: hydrogen burns to WATER VAPOUR – far and away the BIGGEST "greenhouse gas". I'll tell you how mad this all is, and why the eco-nutters need putting back in their box. Drax Power Station in Yorkshire – once the biggest coal-burning power station in Europe and having heavily invested in SO2 flue scrubbers, so when burning coal, it was not only one of the most efficient plants in the world but also one of the cleanest – now burns biofuel. That biofuel is grown in Brazil, the mid-west of America and the prairies of Canada. It is converted locally from being a raw fibrous material into a usable 'woodchip' which requires energy-heavy processing plants operating around the clock. It is then transported to America's eastern seaports by diesel trains. It is then shipped to Ellesmere Port on diesel-powered ships (which, by the way, then return across the Atlantic empty). Once off-loaded at the dockside, it is transported across The Pennines to Drax by Class 66 diesel locomotives. Environmentalists need to extract their heads from their oh-so-virtuous backsides. This isn't 'green'. This is demented. Ask yourself a basic question: from where is the UK's carbon footprint calculated? Ellesmere Port, or in the fields and jungles of the Americas? The real reason the UK's carbon footprint is so low is largely because you "exported" it: your manufacturing is done abroad! Therefore it must be additionally asked: is the carbon cost of importation from the Far East falling on the UK or the exporters? Net Zero is total b******s. 🖖🏻☘🇮🇪
