Cleaner, Cheaper, More Secure Energy for the 21st Century
The new Greenpeace commissioned report, Decentralising UK Energy, demolishes the myth that nuclear power is the best or only option in tackling climate change and shows that a real, more effective, more viable choice is available. The report uses a sophisticated economic model that has been employed by the UK Foreign Office to assess energy options in China, as well as the European Commission, the Federal Government of Canada and the German Environment Ministry. The conclusion is clear: Decentralised energy is cleaner, cheaper and more secure; we do not need nuclear power.
As the government's Energy Review veers ever closer to the conclusion that nuclear power is the only answer to climate change, a new report by non-profit research agency the World Alliance for Decentralised Energy (WADE) demolishes this myth. The report, Decentralising UK Energy, studies several possible future UK energy scenarios based on the key criteria of cutting carbon emissions; security of supply; and cost (both of production and to domestic customers). In particular the report compares models of two possible future scenarios: centralised generation using nuclear power, and a decentralised system, in which energy is predominantly produced close to its point of use using renewables and combined heat and power. Its finding suggests that the decentralised system would provide the UK with enormous benefits over the nuclear option. Any centralised model is, by definition, vulnerable to massive system failure in the face of an attack or natural catastrophe. It's also extremely inefficient; over 60% of the energy going into a power station (whether fuelled by oil, gas, coal or nuclear) is wasted as heat, while another 3.5% is lost as the electricity travels round the national grid. So all in all, over two-thirds of all energy going into a power station is wasted. Overall, WADE reports that the decentralised solution is far superior, being: cleaner - CO2 emissions are 17% lower than in the nuclear scenario. cheaper - overall capital costs are over £1 billion lower than in the nuclear scenario and the retail costs of electricity to the end user are lower too. The model doesn't include the cost of managing nuclear waste, so in reality the cost advantage will be much greater than the £1bn. Recent estimates of the existing nuclear waste cost are as high as £70 billion. more secure - UK gas consumption is 14% lower than in the nuclear scenario. So what would a decentralised energy system look like? Imagine a system in which electricity is produced near where it is going to be used. Individual buildings - residential, commercial and industrial - stop just being consumers of energy and start generating it. Whether through solar panels, wind turbines or combined heat and power units, buildings start generating electricity for use by the local community. Any heat produced as a by-product of electricity generation is channelled through underground networks to heat the community; virtually no energy is lost as waste heat, or in transmission. Regions become self-sufficient. Being small and diverse, the electricity supply is far less vulnerable to massive failure or attack. Householders, local councils and local communities are empowered to act to stop climate change, completely transforming the way society thinks about energy production and use. Read An Energy Revolution to find out more. Sound unrealistic? In the Netherlands, 40% of electricity is created using decentralised systems. In Finland, over 90% of Helsinki is heated by community heat networks. And here in the UK more than 1,000 hospitals, leisure centres and homes already use decentralised energy and utilities systems. Woking Borough Council has reduced emissions from its own buildings by an astonishing 77% through use of renewable technologies and its own local grid system. What's it all going to cost? In the long run, it will cost us less than our current wasteful systems - and less than investing in a new generation of nuclear reactors, as Blair wants to do. As decentralised energy models are adopted and the market for renewable technologies is boosted across the country and throughout Europe, costs will continue to decrease. In Decentralising UK Energy, a decentralised scenario is shown to be £1 bn cheaper than a nuclear scenario, even before the ever escalating costs of nuclear waste disposal are taken into account. The WADE report has presented the smart, cost-effective solution to our future energy needs, and one that is attracting considerable interest and support across the British political spectrum, with the Tories, Liberal Democrats and London's Labour Mayor Ken Livingston supporting a decentralised approach. Only the government remains welded to a 1950s view of the future using massive, wasteful power stations instead of devolving power generation to where it's actually needed.
Take action and Write to your MP to say no to nuclear and yes to efficiency and renewables now!
THE HEALING ARTS
More people than ever before are looking towards new methods of healing to help overcome chronic health conditions. There are many natural and complementary treatments available to us in our search for health and vitality. All of these forms of healthcare have an effect on our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels of consciousness. Nature is kind to us and usually allows healing to take place gradually at a pace that we can accept. Sometimes these changes can be dramatic, with an increase of symptoms that appear negative, but this is really natures way of ridding the body of toxins. Once we are aware of this, anxiety is released, allowing healing to take place. We must remember that it has taken months, even years for the condition to show itself in the body and can take a while to release it from our lives. Simply taking an inorganic chemical pill prescribed by our Dr. or health care advisor will not release us from the problem. These quick-fix methods only hide the pain or symptoms until they emerge elsewhere in us. We can, of course, turn over the responsibilty for our health to a Doctor, Health Advisor, Natural, Alternative, Complementary or Spiritual Healer. Before we do this it is essential to check their qualifications, period of study and ability to really make a commitment to individual healing treatments. Ask for testmonials from satisfied patients.
General Practitioners do offer some useful advice, if they have time. In my experience everyone gets more or less the same response from an agent for the pharmaceutical industry... a prescription for chemical pills that hide and mask the symptoms.
SELF HELP
There are so many methods of self-help and self-improvement available to us that we can be overwhelmed by choice. It is advisable to avoid the 'NEW' methods of healing and training that pop-up regularly by the hundreds. These are mostly untested and cannot be proven to us as effective.
If we examine the fine details of all of the therapies and treatments available to us we will be going round in circles for a long time, and still remain confused. Instead we can look at the principles involved that are in all methods of the healing arts. These principles can give us a strong clue to the essence of their success.
We can assume that the human being is 'alive' because of the energy that fills the body and mind. We can also assume that if that energy is positive and strong in us we will be more active and healthy.
So we must find ways and principles to develop powerful energy for healing ourselves, others, our community, even our planet. Balancing our energy centres or chakras is of vital importance to health and longevity.
This energy is the same regardless of the methods we are attracted to in our search for healing... Ki, Chi, Prana, Magnetism, Vital Life Force etc. Excellent paths to develop this energy for ourselves, without turning our health over to someone else to 'Heal Us' are... Aikido, Chi Kung, Tai Chi, Reiki, Yoga etc.... all tested and proven over time to WORK.
The principles and laws of nature and the universe show us that the 'Truth' is so close to us that we cannot see it, in its simplicity. We search for more and more complex methods to help our individual symptoms and problems in life. The answers are much closer to us than we sometimes think. In fact they are so close, simple, effective and obvious that we tend to over-look them.
All of the 'Secrets' of the Martial and Healing Arts are 'Hidden in the open'. Right in front of our eyes, the last place we usually look.
HEALING ARTS
If you are unwell, lacking in energy, with a variety of problems that YOU want to put behind you, then look close to home for the solutions. Ask yourself 'What feels right for me?' make a decision and stick to your path. Do not chop and change looking for the quick fix that will cure you of your ailments without a change in attitude or lifestyle, it will not happen. We must positively change ourselves in order to leave our ailments and problems behind us, for good.
The following methods have all been proven to be effective for a wide variety of ailments. Many of them you will already know about from your own research. Further information and resources can be found on aikido-health.com, the web or your local library...
