Why are we neglecting 'big' renewables in favour of covering our hillsides with windmills and our roofs with solar panels?
I am afraid, however, that once again we are beginning to build the house from the roof down or, to be more precise, from the ceiling down.
There is no point in making solar panels if you do not have the people to put them on the roof.
We know that this is like building a house from the roof down: every time we have a problem, we try to solve that problem.
I say this because segregation and mere cool coexistence under a very shaky roof are not the ideal conditions for developing a joint state.
We should all just be grateful that the roof has not fallen on us.
Natural disaster and political disaster merge, however, when a school's roof falls in, crushing the only child and leaving the parents distraught.
Losing the roof over your head, especially for children, is terribly traumatic.
