Not a day goes by without at least a few threads getting posted related to energy related breakthroughs. More oil found, more ways to extract oil, more ways to convert substances 'X' to fuel, more ways to produce increasingly energy efficient devices, more ways to produce solar energy cheaper, and on and on and on.
I'm not talking about ''100 mpg carburators'' and such, but about new and proven approaches to producing crude and equivalent.
Nor am I discussing all the magic ''saviors'' of solar, wind, geothermal, and hooking up hoses to the ani of cows.
Save your little lecture for the nutball crowd, please. I trade energy for my living, and understand at least parts of that mkt quite well, thank you.
How about your car? How do you plan to convert it?
I will guess you will rely on the ingenuity of “company”...how often do you take several thousand of YOUR dollars and INVEST in these companies? OK...so let me guess you will do all of the above...now the next questions become REAL fun. How about plastic for CDs, water bottles, package wrapping, patio chairs, many components on your vehicle that make it lighter to help conserve gasoline, what about THAT side of the oil equation? What substitute will we rely on? How about all chemicals that rely on some extract or by product of oil? Fertilizers? I am curious as to what your ideas are for the PRODUCTS we rely on besides the abstract "energy" issue everyone talks about.
