Why was Didcot "A" Power Station Demolished a Columnist Asks?

The demolition of Didcot "A" power station removed about 1.44 GigaWatts of generation. So why was it demolished when China is building many new coal fired power stations? Couldn't it have been made to operate in a cleaner way by filtering emissions etc?

  • Follow the money eh? He controls the charity that is funding extinction rebellion through his wife. It gets its funds from creaming off a percentage of the profits of his hedge fund.

    He runs a very aggressive hedge fund with a cuddly children's name. His motives are not to be trusted imho.

    Mass movements don’t spring from nowhere, there needs to be a catalyst. The current trend to bow before Saint Greta of No-Nobel arose because she inspired thousands of credulous children to believe in her imperfect understanding of climatological trends. All very innocent if a bit worrying. But Extinction Rebellion is made of sterner stuff and deliberately conflate unconnected issues to weave a narrative of societal breakdown with which to attack the very thing which allows them the lives they have; capitalism. For make no mistake, this is their true aim.
