I agree. There needs to be a way to get the R&D money and then forever cut the gov’t out of the commercial application end of it.

I’m not really sure we’ve even hit on the right combination with solar. These little solar cells, panels, thin-sheets, etc. are basically the focus for years now. Surely there’s a better way than that to get at all the heat bombarding this planet.

There is a way: private money. There are plenty of billionaires and they can spend their cash hunting the solutions, not ours.

Petroleum is the result and we should be using it. Look at Thorium as a potentially safe nuclear alternative. Newt is behind the curve on this and is bent on money.
