Our drivel takes precedence over yours



Investigation launched into Worcester Bosch over hydrogen marketing concerns

The move follows a Sky News investigation which highlighted potentially misleading claims made by a number of heating and boiler companies and prompted Worcester Bosch to remove some information about hydrogen from its website.

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has announced it is investigating leading boiler manufacturer Worcester Bosch over whether it has been misleading consumers by marketing a range of gas boilers as "hydrogen-blend ready".



The general responsibility for propagating sustainability drivel lies with the government, the same outfit which can't manage our future energy needs, build a modern railway from London to Manchester, defend our borders or manage a relatively minor pandemic without trashing the economy. 

Look, a hydrogen squirrel!

The government's own policy papers note that transferring to hydrogen would decrease the amount of CO2 put into the atmosphere, but leaks of the unburnt hydrogen would also change the atmospheric composition in ways we wouldn't like.

I'm all for sustainability, especially sustaining our existing boiler.

Sam - it's all beginning to sound like a range of potential solutions for the wealthy but not for anyone else.
