United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

You sign up for a project that they have in the pipeline and then choose how much you want to invest in the project, based on the percentage of the power produced by the project. Then after paying your investment over several months, you will own a part of the co-operative that owns the wind turbines/solar panels. Ripple get the project built and set up the co-operative that will own the project. The energy generated is taken off your electricity bill, but you still have to pay standing charges and the like. There's several electricity providers that work with ripple and allow you to credit the electricity generation against your electricity bill, but the main one currently is Octopus energy.
