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

Zoomup
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?

    So, the hard of thinking mob are demanding:

    "Government must create and be led by the decisions of a Citizens’ Assembly"


    A look in the history books might suggest they missed the section on Robespierre and the Committee on Public Safety


    Reasonable protest is fine in my book - the hard core embedded in ER are a danger to all right minded thinking individuals. If we follow the logic through we are suggesting condemning about 90% of the world population to zero growth - so if currently your dad grubs about on a subsistence basis, that that's going to be your lot, and the same for your children and grandchildren. Unpalatable at the facts may be, in my view we don't necessarily have a climate emergency, more of a population emergency - google for the population projection figures and the economic growth figures for Zambia as an example
