we have to lead from the bottom up.
they all would like nothing more than us sucking on a very dirtily expensive pair of energy tits (nuclear & coal) anyway. thanks to J and CH at al, this is being balanced a bit.
my fear is that it's borderline token, my hope is that public pressure will be so irresistible for cleaner, more harmonic solutions, that governments will cave before the proof that sol/wind works, and doesnt need repressive thug lockdowns of society to force the people to accept the Great Change that's round the next bend.
right now they're finally getting round to serious electric car manufacture, but if we shift from petrogas transport to all electric, we're going to need scads of nuke plants scattered around to feed our happy motoring.
power to the people. not just sold to the people.
as energy goes, so will the rest of what we know as civilisation. we need somehow to pull up a heavy airliner full of belligerent drunks out of a nose dive in fog, and i don't know what it's going to take before people wake up and take a good look around, and realise how tenuous our normality is, and what a shaky foundation it's rocking on.
we still have a tiny slice of time to change, and we're wasting it going like this. ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate." Karl Jung~
