Dan, thanks for calling E.On out on their nonsense.
E.On using fuel prices to justify their continued reliance on coal while at the same time pulling down massive profits would be funny if it wasn’t so sad.
great to finally see an honest opinion on the e.on ‘debate’; their ‘techincal difficulties’ seem to have disappeared under pressure from the climate campers.
e.on’s claims that they provide ‘a service to the community’ in the Ratcliffe video are sickeningly false. Dan from Plane Stupid shows us the real impact of e.on on the community – fuel poverty, climate change and a massive threat to our future.
Well done climate camp, plane stupid and climate rush for getting the truth out there.
It’s huge energy companies like Eon who benefit from fossil fuels. Coal is running out and the sooner we start building the infrastructure for renewables the better.
It’s the world’s poor in the global south who will be affected most by climate change. We can’t afford to let the government and climate criminals like Eon dictate yet more false solutions and peddle more greenwash at the UN Climate talks in December at Copenhagen.
At last Eon have let through some video responses. Not sure I believe the ‘technical difficulties’ excuse. If they can’t even figure out how to use youtube it doesn’t give much confidence in their ability to make carbon capture and storage work. Or that they can solve their precious ‘trilema’ without continuing to do serious damage to our planet.
Great vid Dan.
If you’ve had enough of lining the fat cats’ pockets then think about switching to Ebico who are a UK based not-for-profit energy provider. No standing charge if you have a pre-payment meter either.
Well said.
Well said.
good work on getting this out there
Thanks Dan, I will be thinking of you all this weekend at Ratcliffe.
You da man Dan!
Good to see this on the site
1. Chloe, you mean: sooner you’ll start the protests against renewables (like protests against wind turbines), the better?
2. I hope that all of you will be happy to deliver energy just for nothing, without paying the workers, media, taxes, fuels etc. Well, please explain how is energy differs from goods delivered by your work? Why can’t you work for free?
Well, this seems a lot of sense to me.
Another beautiful own goal by E.on.
have a view, that’s fine, however, direct action is just downright dangerous, as has been said, power stations are not playgrounds.
