copycat Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 The BBC is reporting oil prices at an 11 month high of $77 a barrel - how long before it filters through for petrol price rises on the IOM? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/6896042.stm and following publication of the National Grid report in June what are the MEA and Manx Gas doing about buying gas forward for the winter??? http://www.nationalgrid.com/NR/rdonlyres/A...June07final.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempus Fugit Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I can't get over the comments the other day in that place where all the hot air is spouted, about vehicles running with headlights in daylight, and how much CO2 will be released by the extra fuel used running the headlights ! Next thing they will be charging us extra to drive at night, and will be sending the government employees home before it gets dark (if they don't already ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spermann Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 We need to use up all of this fuel, sooner rather than later. If we try on conserve the existing fossel fuel energy that we have then there will be no incentive for new technologies and incentives! Get it used up so we can move onto more environmentally friendly ways of energy use. It may also stop a war or two along the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
