Energy Crisis
I was told we were in a critical energy crisis in 1974. I was told in 1980 that gasoline would cost $10 per gallon within 5 years. In 1985 it was 67 cents per gallon. We were not lied to, the truth is the future is unwritten.
One thing I can say is that we have the brains to prevent us from poisoning ourselves and running out of space. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.
I hear a lot of good ideas but see no political will. One thing I know for certain, that is our reduced carbon resources are limited both in supply and utilization. The time for sustainability is now.
It does not really matter, in the long run, who produces the most oil in 2020. What does matter is Human Nature and its need to kill each other over scarce essential resources. This is what really needs to be changed. Our greedy nature must change or we will commit collective suicide.
