There is nothing in today's technologies which couldn't have been developed through the 70's to 90'swhich would have meant we would have more, perhaps far more, than 20% of all electricity (and heat and transport) globally by now.

Go read Soft Energy Paths by Amory Lovins from Foreign Affairs (1974?) before you tar us with your Greenpeace pablum.  Then check his work on getting the military off oil this decade.
