As pointed out by FoE, the current scheme still leaves plenty room for improvement:

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As momentum continues to gather in support of Renewable Energy Technologies, <a href="http://www.foe.co.uk/campaigns/climate/press_for_change/stronger_feed_in_tariff_21701.html">Friends of the Earth</a> are demanding more support.</p>
<p>As pointed out by FoE, the current scheme still leaves plenty room for improvement:</p>
<p><em>&#8216;the scheme the Government has proposed is poor. It will mean just 2% of the UK&#8217;s electricity comes from small scale renewables by 2020.<span style="font-style: normal;"><em>The Government&#8217;s own research shows triple this amount could be produced if the scheme was more ambitious.&#8217;</em></span></em></p>
<p><strong></p>
<h4 style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left; color: #003300; font-weight: bold; font-size: 11pt;"><em>&#8216;Energy is for everyone</em></h4>
<p></strong></p>
<p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0px;"><em>Without a proper payback on buying green technologies only the wealthy will be able to afford them.</em></p>
<p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0px;"><em>An </em><strong><em>ambitious scheme</em></strong><em> with proper payback would mean more:</em></p>
<ul style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; list-style-type: circle;">
<li><strong><em>Households took part </em></strong><em><br style="line-height: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" />especially those who are less well off</em></li>
<li><strong><em>Community projects</em></strong><em><br style="line-height: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" />Like community owned windfarms</em></li>
<li>
<p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0px;"><strong><em>Action by councils</em></strong><em><br style="line-height: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" />to support renewables in their area.<br style="line-height: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" /></em></p>
</li>
</ul>
<p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0px;"><strong><em>Call on your MP</em></strong><em> to demand a scheme that lives up to the UK&#8217;s renewable energy potential.&#8217;</em></p>
