Howard Cogan (Climate questions) seems to have missed an important point that Sir Tim made about transport. He is investigating the use of electric vehicles to convey visitors to the site presumably from mainland and Portland collection centres. His response to Ian Britain’s letter is unproductive and rather ‘high and mighty’. It puts me in mind of someone who ‘prohibits’ solar panels on the ‘island’ of Poundbury.
