RE: The Law Of Zero: Rapidly Changing Our World
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
It sure is interesting to see how costs just keep going down. Both video and pictures have essentially dropped down to zero cost and even energy seems to be following the trend. I think the biggest barrier before was that we were reliant on fossil fuels but now we see significant progress in clean energy (solar, wind, water) and we might be able to this drop even further.

Certainly I think it is safe to presume that the costs will continue on the trend they were. That said, people forget that the cost of fossil fuel dropped a great deal in the last 13 years. Remember $140 a barrel oil? What crushed that long term was a new technology, fracking. While one can make the claim about the safety of it, the fact remains it disrupted the economics.
The reality is, for the foreseeable future, we need both renewable and fossil fuel expansion since the world's energy needs are growing. This will taper off at some point as fossil fuel is replaced.
But during this explosive phase of technological growth, we need all the energy we can get our hands on.

That is the problem. The environmentalist want to move completely off it right now.

Yep and it isnt' going to work without killing a lot of people.
But then that might be their goal.

Yea but I have no idea what their final goal is. I don't think anyone actually does since its all about power.

Well that is their ultimate, and ever-lasting, goal.
To retain power.
