How to solve the Energy Crisis

I was driving along the motorway a few days ago eating a snack, and when I looked up from my mobile phone and stared off over by the side of the road, I noticed something that looked a bit like this.

For those of you that don’t know, this is called a Wind Farm. I know what you’re thinking, there’s plenty of wind anyway without them wasting valuable electricity generating more, but hang on a minute, that’s not what wind farms do.

Wind Farms are actually a super futuristic way of harnessing the power of wind and converting it into electricity. By 2010, the goverment has set a target of 10% of our electricity coming from renewable sources. Renewable sources like wind. In order to take advantage of the power of wind, these enormous windfarms will need to be erected everywhere, in fact human beings will have to live underground and the entire earths surface will be covered in them so we can power our televisions. Or something like that.

I think we should think more logistically though. We don’t need to set aside giant sections of land for windfarms, we could just make better use of the space we’re already taking up. For example, the motorways. At the moment, we have street lights running up and down roads all over the country. There are literally millions of poles with lightbulbs on stuck in the ground all over the place, and we’re doing nothing with them. So why don’t we do this.

I’ve only gone and stuck a fucking windmill on street lights haven’t I. Damn fucking straight, where’s your energy crisis now? Nowhere, that’s where.

Once again it seems the world has left it to me to fix all it’s problems. Lazy world.
