Via Natalie Solent comes this:
A global shortage of
turbines and other key pieces of equipment needed by the burgeoning
wind power industry is causing delays to many schemes needed by the
British government to meet its CO2 reduction targets.
Part
of the problem is blamed on the US president, George Bush, who has
agreed on a raft of tax credits for the American wind industry, which
is causing a construction boom when suppliers are already overstretched.
…
There are hopes that the
problems will be short-lived but Mr Edge said they did raise new
questions about the government’s ability to meet its targets on cutting
carbon dioxide output to counter global warming.
Just too, too, giggletastic.
We won’t meet CO2 targets by building windmills because too many people are building windmills.
You will also want to see Scott’s response.
