oh, no, not demand destruction — not substitutions — !!! how will we live in a world where people's energy needs are met by other materials? one shudders to think of the world switching to coal to produce the entirety of its global warming pollution. coal is even more politicized, and there is far too much of it to make it profitable.
i certainly hope the people here at grist do not support this dangerous future of substituting other energy sources for oil.
