“Great Britain has a huge cat population. For most of their day they loll around on sofas, beds, walls etc. By changing existing Animal Protection legislation to allow all cats to be forced to spend just 1 hour per day on a government issued treadmill, connected to the National Grid, at least 12.5 gigawatts of electricity could be generated. This could be sold back to the Energy providers at the current wholesale market rate.”
This is the level-headed and reasonable proposal that has been suggested at HM Treasury’s ‘Spending Challenge‘ website.
If it were to go ahead, I could rent my dog out to provide extra speed/generation during peak times. He’s a Lurcher. He likes cats.
