[Margaret Pilkington]

I do not think I am alone in these thoughts.
How is it we can put a man on the moon, but yet getting over petrol/diesel driven transport is beyond us?

When thinking of transport we need to consider the movement of goods.
Can you see large container lorries being powered by electric?
No - neither can I.
And then there is the thorny problem of disposing of the many worn out batteries over the years.
These are not small things to dispose of....so where do they go?

All of these things should be being investigated...as should ALL alternative forms of powering our domestic and industrial needs.
That is, of course, unless we really want to go back to the stone age.
