I understand (none / 0)
Will is essential for achieving all that is physically possible. Of course, what I sketched out above is not my position, but rather that of many sober, hard-headed, bona fide experts in various fields, including the military, geology and the oil industry. It rests on a wealth of research and numerous studies, both private and government-sponsored.

There's no lack of debate in the energy field, especially about what the future holds, but it is anchored in the sciences and mathematics, rather than economics. It's about what is true and what is not true of the physical world, and its leading participants tend to be as objective as can reasonably be expected of human beings.

But this is a notoriously touchy subject, and I've already inadvertently offended one person on this thread, so I can only reiterate that the essential facts are not hard to check for anyone who cares to look.

Meanwhile, here's hoping you're right and it's all potentially fixable.

experts...... (none / 0)
on very narrow subjects too often become trapped by their own specialties. The old can't see the forest through the trees....

I am running half of my oversized poorly insulated house on a small solar array.  Solar is only 30 years behind it's sister chips. There is so much room for advancement and job creation in this field alone.  Nano technology is going to be a game changer in for solar, not to mention mass production by chip makers.
