Good spacing on that cage though, unwieldy but has a chance to actually work.

LFP batteries are pretty harmless environmentally, lithium and iron are abundant. But sure let's continue extracting refining and burning oil instead, that has famously never harmed the environment.

A few of these interceptor drones at each airbase and airport in Europe would solve all of the drone problems.

There just aren't many prepositioned c-uas assets yet. Now that it's become a serious issue it shouldn't take long for them to start appearing at key sites. Interceptor drones are probably the fastest and most flexible to start with.

Prop planes with guns seem like a good solution, decent speed and loiter time, can cover a large area, much lower cost per flight hour than jets (and helis?). Something like the Skyraider.

We zullen nog steeds staal nodig hebben, waar moet dat dan vandaan komen - China? Veroorzaakt de productie daar minder uitstoot dan hier?
Waarom niet Tata versneld overzetten naar CO2 neutrale staalproductie en daadwerkelijk uitstoot verminderen ipv verplaatsen?

Ik vind dat het er prima duidelijk staat, het is bij te weinig mensen bekend hoeveel subsidie nodig is om kerncentrales te bouwen. Dit is een duidelijke manier om het te brengen, niks tegen kerncentrales als iemand ze wil bouwen maar publiek geld kan beter besteed worden.
