\\ With target returns of up to 8% isn’t it time you invested ethically in renewable wind energy?
Capital at risk, returns not guaranteed. //
Invest in renewable energy and help reduce fuel poverty
Our Community Energy, established by Mongoose Energy and not-for-profit Scottish energy supplier Our Power, is giving you the chance to invest in two community-owned wind farms in Pogbie, East Lothian and Brockholes, Berwickshire.
Totalling over £3 million, these new investments are Innovative Finance ISA eligible, aim to return up to 8.1% (RPI linked) to investors and will use surplus profits to help make energy bills fairer for those most in need.
(£3 million is obviously tiny in energy market terms..proper projects cost like £1bn)
So who's in the team of FOR PROFIT Mongoose energy ? Our Team
Chairman : Sir Ed Davey – Ed is a trained economist
CEO : Jan-Willem Bode – CEO
CEO : Mark Kenber (photo part of the page)
Is that OK ?
Irony #1 Minister who promoted such schemes , now Chairman of a corp which profits from them
Irony #2 Every such scheme added to the electricity network has to increase the overall cost of electricity and therefore the cost of everything you pay for directly/indirectly eg NHS services
..yet their PR says "help reduce fuel poverty"

Southwest Airlines: this is second failure of the same make of engine in two years. So — like United Airlines mistreating or misrouting dogs — the media are looking for a pattern, a meme, a way to write articles guaranteed to run on the Front Page.
CFM - Lesson to learn: don't buy products French engineers have been involved with. AF Concorde crash was warning - French failures were abundant.
I was surprised engine cover had GE logo on it. GE should remove that asap to protect their brand. It was instantly gone from Tony Fernandes' Lotus F1 when he exited.

"It is no accident that April 22, Earth Day, is also the birth date of Vladimir Lenin, an acolyte of Karl Marx, the lunatic who invented communism as an alternative to capitalism.
Earth Day is naked communism. "

Oh Shuckman has answered my point that Bandung plastic situation would be a lot better if #MarieAntoinette rich kids and foreign NGOs didn't keep blocking incinerator projects
He said "Any solution involves trade-offs.
Officials in Banding told me the incinerator plan was taking shape"
OK, he didn't block me at first opp, so that's a start ..he replied to one other person also

The only thing you need to know about Earth Day
It really isn’t hyperbole to insist that John D. Rockefeller saved the whales by his making mineral oil products so much cheaper than the cetacean-derived equivalent. And that’s really all you need to know to understand Earth Day and what to do about it.
Greens believe in an imaginary past where happy & content man, beast & nature lived in perfect harmony. It was never thus.

Google "Tesla suspension failure"
This from 2016
https://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/10/business/tesla-model-s-nhtsa-suspension-failure.html
"Tesla did not respond Thursday to requests for comment. [On Friday, the company responded in a blog post, saying there was no safety defect with the Model S nor any intent to discourage complaints to regulators.]"
If Tesla state there is no safety defect associated with parts of their cars going in different directions, we must accept their experience.

‘Enoch Was Right’ by Raheem Kassam Rockets Up Amazon Charts
Enoch Was Right, which is Kassam’s assessment of the former soldier, statesman, academic, and published poet’s infamous 1968 speech on mass migration, has claimed the number one spot in both the Ideologies and Nationalism categories for the online retail giant.
The book was released on the 50th anniversary of the speech on Kindle, but is now available in paperback as well.
Not surprised. Many people want to judge for themselves, not rely on biased BBC/C4 & US MSM
