It’s sunny today and this is how the roof looks at 2pm (screen grab of a video I took)

HG - then if it were me, I would also consider to do this retrospectively. The council might then ask how yr neighbours feel about it + all the other stuff such as check aspect, safety, environmental concerns

Remember the sun is highest in the sky at this time of year, so earlier or later when the sun is lower there might be additional shading from what looks like a higher roof on the right

That’s true but the estate agents pic taken in late feb / early March looked like this so still decent sun coverage



Wonder if there’s website which shows sun coverage over the year

About This Thread

Hi
I've seen environment (whether emissions, power, climate change, access to countryside, whatever you think of as "environment") discussed in various threads: Politics (obviously), the Electric Car thread fetcheveryone.com/forum/electric-car-anyone-61481/ , run free's excellent "Competitive Running and Keeping The Environment Clean" fetcheveryone.com/forum/running-competitively-keeping-our-environment-clean-60907/ my own Greta Thunberg thread fetcheveryone.com/forum/greta-thunberg---jfk-for-the-climate-generation-61044/ etc. but I haven't seen a general one.

So here it is. For those interested in the science, the politics, the action for (and I'll state that for me, this is mostly pro-environment, anti-emissions, anti-pollution etc.) and the hope for the future of our planet.
