I had to take an awkward diversion, heading home from town this afternoon, due to the closure of BOTH main routes back; to replace electrical wiring. On the first detour road, I saw a huge field inundated with Solar Panels.

The opposite.
Saving us from dystopia.
We've got a few round here, some people really hate them as they see it as industrialisation of a rural landscape, but they're mostly people who dont' realise that the countryside has always been industrial to a greater or lesser extent. It's not and never has been all roling countryside and a few sheep and cows on a hillside.
The ones round here often have sheep grazing around them, so the farmer gets an extra crop, electicity as well as wool and meat.
Hardly any of our countryside's is natural.
After the ice age, once the north sea filled, there were only something like 30 woody plant species.
We should be mostly broadleaf forest with stinging nettles and brambles in the south. Higher areas maybe more bracken.
Open areas are only there due to grazing, most of which was introduced or farmed.
We're a red squirrel stronghold and any greys are humanely dispatched. Reds seem to need a slightly different habitat to greys, less happy in urban areas and sticking to woodlands and pine forests.
They have such an amazing colour range too, I've seen one thats really dark brown and another thats really bright Prince Harry ginger, most are somewhere in between.
I have Solar Panels, on my roof. But, ultimately, the problem isn't the Technology. It's the State Control of the Technology.
Same applies to Phones, and AI. The State has too much vested interest in the implementation of Tech. The Fox is in charge of the Henhouse.
That's awful, there is place on the lid for a lock but we've never bothered as it's not been a thing round here (yet!). And definitely, that's so petty to destroy the ground too, I really don't understand the selfishness. I wish environmental crimes were taken seriously by law enforcement, but they are always tied up chasing targets and being de-funded.
We're lucky that we have gas, many places round here don't and it's a choice of oil, LPG or solid fuel, all of which fluctuate in price and availablity, there have been quite a lot of heating oil thefts too, what's even worse is the contamination of the ground from spillages. These spillages are often deliberate because not only does someone steal your oil, but they leave the tap open so anything they've left runs out across the ground. I think people who do this shold not only be prosecuted for theft, but for environmental crimes too.
I forgot about the rest of your post Yes it would be cool to see if you can contact someone and get them to cover that, it's often so hard to get information to see what is being done, e.g. red squirrels, it would be awesome if you could find out more!
Ok thanks. I’ll do that.
Yeah, it's disappointing it's only england and wales for the courts, but it's due to the laws being different. I think there keeps being lots of feedback to them and there was mention of looking into engaging scottish lawyers at one point.
And they do help with the other nations, just not in the courts -there was a public consultation on the badger cull in Northern Ireland, and they helped by explaining the points so you can better understand and not be tripped up by the language used. And also by knowing it's on -the goverment departments often put out these public consultations but you never find out about them. They also highlighted raptor persecution stories in scotland. You can sign up for the free newsletter, so you can see if they ever do anything relevant to you.
