I don’t know how unpopular an opinion it is, but surely anyone just deciding to self ID as a different gender opens huge safeguarding concerns?
I’m all for the process being easy for them to work through, but literally just doing it yourself seems excessively easy and abusable.
The only point I’d make on heat pumps is that they are a good way of heating a home using electricity. Without using heat pumps, even with solar panels most people will still have to use some form of boiler to heat their homes/water and I think heat pumps are a good step forward for us to actually move toward energy efficient heating specifically.
You’re right though that in the short term we can probably get better value from solar panels or investing more in wind
I think it’s chicken and egg.
