I've seen it stated that for the UK alone to meet its ev targets (and increase the grid by 10-20pc capacity) we'd need over 100pc of the world's annual extraction and processing of copper and rare earth minerals amongst other materials.

In fairness adding new runways to the two busiest airports in the country right by a densely populated city isn't overly controversial. Air travel is not going to stop overnight.

Just as a comparison China plan to build another 150 airports in the country by 2035.

They need to improve the engines etc but air travel will be required for centuries moving forward.

Funny...Not my foreign jaunts, the greatness of individuality and no collective responsibility, laid bare.

That's why it's all nonsense this COP26, just bored mass debaters wagging by their fingers while striking free trade deal to bring meat in from the other side of the world. We need planes alright.

Charles Sonderburg Gluck s berg AKA Charlie Windsor has told world leaders to Get to work and save the planet, in a speech today
Charles and his wife have homes and estates in England Scotland and Wales though stays mainly at Clarence House but uses the others when he tours to pursue his fishing walking and hunting activities. His 90 odd year old mother has estates palaces and castles that she rambles around in ( god love you ma’am we are all in it together)
Charles travels by private jet around the world where he sometimes does a little native dance to patronise the locals, now he lectures us on environmental issues as his main focus.
The arrogance of these royals leaves me speechless Please Please get rid of the lot of them and confiscate every penny and asset

We’ve started prospecting to reopen copper mines in Cornwall and lithium mining there also but apparently it does not effect the local ecosystem (as if )
