The public could help a lot by using less leccy.
I know I'm very naive and a bit thick too, but wouldn't it be a very simple and effective thing for the govt to have an ongoing 'let's save lots of resources' drive? When they did the Switch Off Something now campaign in the 70s that was very effective. It needn't be so drastic as that, but surely it is the govt's responsiblity to educate people about the vast quantities of needless use and to encourage people to use less electricity (well, less of everything really, but leccy is a good place to start). Or would that just give the impression that they are not able to supply our needs and there for not a very good govt?
