And we owe Dale Vince a great deal for turning what we feel into so simple a concept.
He saw that if human beings are going to save the natural world and protect the planet which sustains our lives, that aim has got to affect everything we do. That’s why the Government must make it easier and cheaper to do the right thing and harder and more expensive to trash nature or pollute our rivers and oceans.
We can see where that’s already working. Take electric cars. Renewable electricity means driving without the dangerous emissions from an internal combustion engine. That’s why the Government says that after 2030 we shall not be able buy petrol or diesel cars.
