Jottings from SW Surrey. This used to be mainly about energy but now I've retired it's just an old man's rant. From 23 June 2016 'til 12 December 2019 Brexit dominated but that is now a lost cause. So, I will continue to point out the stupidities of government when I'm so minded; but you may also find the odd post on climate change, on popular science or on genealogy - particularly my own family.

Britain Top EE Nation?
In July I noticed several headlines hailing Britain as the top nation as far as energy efficieny is concerned. Upon checking this out I find that the reoprt from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy only looked at 12 nations; and then Britain scored 67 out of a possible 100. Still, credit where credit's due - the list of nations was for 12 of the world's largest economies (accounting for some 78% of global GDP). I guess it's a case of "Well done, but could do better".
