While you may consider us numties (it’s numpties, actually!), our arguments against coal are based on what we believe to be robust research. For example, please read the Poyry report (http://www.greenpeace.org.uk/media/reports/implications-of-the-uk-meeting-its-2020-renewable-energy-targets), which clearly states that we do not need either coal or nuclear to keep the lights on.

There are many technologies which, for whatever reasons, are not being pursued including Combined Heat & Power as well as wave, tidal and solar power. It is not all about windmills on hills. Furthermore, China spends a far higher proportion on green energy than the UK. Something like half of China’s emissions are due to its export trade with countries like ours. Too many people seek to blame others when they should be examining their own lifestyles and consumption patterns.

We are perfectly happy to engage in reasoned debate on our website. If you would like to provide evidence to support your claims we will happily take a look, provided you takes a look at ours.

SANC does not necessarily believe everything we are told by politicians and corporate businessmen with a financial interest in the coal industry. Reducing energy demand is paramount whether one believes that climate change is caused by fossil fuel emissions or not. Energy will become increasingly expensive and that will impact on all of us. Contrary to your belief, groups like SANC are trying to avoid a return to the dark ages.

Yours sincerely

SANC webmaster
