If power needs keep rising, business will seek to supply that resource. The only recourse to fight conventional business trends is political will. It sounds like you attempted to supply some energy to fight conventional business growth. Could you consider a political commitment to add more wisdom to the committees that get to make these large strategic decisions? Hopefully, the children of boomers get the education they need to tackle to large question of growth at any cost... and re-engineer our world for better use of resources. Pendulums swing and when we forget to maintain balance the earth corrects for us and not necessarily with us... The heroes of the next generation will be scientists who find the most pressings issues and devise solutions for new realities. When we find and root out the devil we will see that his greatest tools are ignorance, greed and carelessness. Nicely written post, Frank. Frank,

Pendulums swing and when we forget to maintain balance the earth corrects for us and not necessarily with us… The heroes of the next generation will be scientists who find the most pressings issues and devise solutions for new realities.

When we find and root out the devil we will see that his greatest tools are ignorance, greed and carelessness.

Nicely written post, Frank.

You ask very important questions as well as sharing some healthy scientific skepticism. How exciting that you were able to make a difference like that. And I say this NOT as a "groupie" but as a *most* discerning blogster! Frank,
