If NIMBY’s are saying that Pylons are old technology, should we also remove our kitchen sinks because they are old technology?

8 year old me with a picture of an L3 D60 on Route XEA (Brinsworth - Thurcroft - Conisborough Tee) that I had taken with my first iPad!

Popped around my local area and I thought it’d be funny to do this photo in front of a NIMBY poster.

Why now? It should’ve been done the day before any attempts to create “disposable” ones. Why were these never banned until now? You’re trying to get rid of a problem YOU created and spreaded! If it ain’t environmentally friendly then it should never have been made!

Saw this new NIMBY poster recently put up in my local area a few days ago.

This is the scarring and destruction of a lot of agricultural land by a Six-Circuit 220kV Underground Cable in North Lincolnshire to cut corners with Planning Permission. Here is a comparison of the land impact of a 400kV Overhead Line vs a 400kV Underground Cable corridor.

Some people may say that I’m a danger to others because I speak my mind. If I see idiocy, I will call it out.

The perfect tower for The Great Grid Upgrade, the L13. It is the heaviest 400kV tower in the class but it is the same type of steel used for the L12 but is thicker to accommodate some of the heaviest mechanical loads out there. It is easy to assemble however and a perfect time to futureproof.
