Get Real About Energy

How, long, oh, how long? 

I've written extensively here, and on the Human Conspiracy Blog about energy independence. 

Here's  a link to an expert  on the CNN Website.  Go to

The bottom line? 

The sheer scale of our dependency on fossil fuels means that our energy supply cannot be replaced by wind or solar energy - not in the real world. 

 

A hydrogen econony is a pipe dream without an original energy source.  The practical case is compelling:  It's nuclear energy or turn off the lights and stay at home.  Not rocket science, but a 55 year old technology, proven, available and safe....

For more go to my article, The Nuclear Option:

It is time to overcome our nuclear phobia.

Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I'd like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article... but what can I say... I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
