> we all need to use less energy We need cheaper and cleaner forms of energy. More efficient uses of energy. I do not agree that we "all" need to use less energy overall. Energy use tracks wealth pretty closely, and manufacturing/creating things tends to be energy intensive. The more cheap clean energy we make available, the more novel uses will be found for it. |

Yep that's the dream, but it's not what I have coming out of my wall right now.

I'm guessing the majority of users on this site are in the 1% globally so it seems reasonable to consider what's produced/manufactured for us and what services like these that we're using

That will be a brilliant future but it's not the reality today.
