Given all the other lack of planning & preparation displayed by the government, perhaps we as a nation need to prepare ourselves for a no-energy rather than a low energy situation.

I have bought low energy lightbulbs and they are pretty good but perhaps not as good as those they are intended to replace.

However, in getting them it crossed my mind that if we had no electricity it would have a massive impact on our technologically based society.

Got to the stage where I am considering having solar panels fitted so that I can still benefit from my low energy bulbs.
