More scribbly chibi Life on Mars fic summaries

I probably should've paid attention to the second half of statistics instead of drawing this, but what can you do? ( You brought my newsclippings!!! )

In other news, I went to town for more paper and scotch tape and another Georgette Heyer book, but I didn't go to the grocery store, and now I'm suffering from a killer craving for herrgårds potato chips. Really, killer.

EU energy politics

Finland kind of uses a fuckton of nuclear power and it would totally make sense to use windpower, because it's... really windy here, and there's a lot of rugged hilly landscape. But rich assholes, including many Swedish-speaking ones (but while that might be a larger proportion among Swedish- than among Finnish-speakers it's still mostly Finnish ones because there just aren't that many Swedish-speakers to go around), who own vacation property in the archipelago don't want their view "spoiled" because windmills are apparently view-spoilingly fugly. Yeah, oh, okay. We wouldn't want your summer home experience to be spoiled by consciousness of plebeian things like conscientious energy usage! You're right, let's just build a sixth nuclear power plant!

Fact: Norway and Iceland use basically 100% renewable energy. Finland uses 21% renewable and 27% nuclear. Britain uses 2% renewable and 9% nuclear. France uses 6% renewable and 40% (!) nuclear. Germany uses 4% renewable and 12% nuclear.

Run!
