We had some really great threads last year, with the following four nominated for the Thread of the Year award in this January's Environment Site Awards ceremony.
Fossil Fuels and Peak Oil ForumRestore human legs as a means of travel. Pedestrians rely on food for fuel and need no special parking facilities - Lewis Mumford
Petrol where I live was nearly 95p per litre before Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. I'm thinking of investing in a pony and trap, unless Gordon Brown plans to tax bales of hay!
Yesterday morning I paid 94.9p per litre. Hopefully the price will rise even higher and remove the school run gas guzzlers driven by a woman with a mobile glued to her ear and containing one obese child off the roads.
At some of the petrol stations here (the ones in small vilages) diesel is now the same as petrol - becuase they are both 99.9 and they've run out of digits!
I can't remember what Tesco and Morrison are charging, but diesel was ~95p two weeks ago
It's 99.9p in my nearest petrol station although the paper is saying today that oil prices have dropped again after Katrina so it is unlikely that the national average will rise above £1.00 per litre.
I took my motorbike on a trip to Wales at the weekend and paid 105.9 ppl at one petrol station that wasn't even particularly remote! Couldn't quite believe what I was seeing, I'm only glad it has just an 18 litre tank and does 45mpg!
