Re: Climate Change - sea level rises.

Financial and climate cost to replacing stuff too. It takes energy to make stuff and it would have to be extraordinarily more efficient than the old to make it really worth while.


And more efficient doesn't mean better. I can't use induction hobs (pacemaker) and like the instant heat and control of gas heating. If people just swapped out gas for heat pumps and then wanted more heat "now" they'd plug in electric heaters.


And coal/wood fires work in power cuts. Very useful when they have happened, can heat main room and even cook on it.
