Five companies in Britain produce more carbon dioxide pollution together than all the motorists on UK roads combined, according to new figures which reveal heavy industry's contribution to climate change.
A league table compiled by the Guardian identifies EON UK, the electricity generator that owns Powergen, as Britain's biggest corporate emitter of greenhouse gases. It produced 26.4m tonnes of carbon dioxide last year - slightly more than Croatia did.
The figures, which have prompted new calls for tighter restrictions on corporate pollution, show that efforts by individuals and households to cut their carbon footprints will make little difference unless accompanied by greater action by industry. A 1% increase in the efficiency of the giant Drax power station in North Yorkshire - the largest in Europe and the single biggest polluting site in the UK - would save the typical carbon emissions of 21,000 households. Drax alone produced 20.8m tonnes of carbon dioxide last year.

In the mid-seventies we were all warned that the oil was a finite resource and we should conserve it. It was called "The Energy Crisis" Now I am told that we use too much of it and in 100 years we will all die due to climate change.
What happened to the oil running out? How do we suddenly have so much?

Countries like Britain, Germany, France & Australia (even though they're NOT a signatory) are leading the world in reaching reduction targets for harmful greenhouse gases and other pollutants, but China, and the USA are increasing so rapidly that Europe's efforts will not make a difference. What can we do to force them to be more responsible?

I am looking for some website or forum where I can discuss the nitty-gritty of making wind turbines and building anything that enables people to go off the grid and build their own boats, heat sources, alternative fuels, all-natural materials, etc.
Would anyone know where to find that?
Thanks.
