I'd just like to quote a paragraph from the George Will piece Eric just linked to:MIT's Adelman notes that even before 1800 -- before the coal-fired industrial revolution -- Europeans worried about exhausting coal supplies. ``European production actually did peak in 1913 and is nearly negligible today.'' Billions of tons remain beneath European soil but are uneconomical to remove. So far.I believe the current price of "alternative" (i.e., non-hydrocarbon, non-wind, non-nuclear) energy is a few times the price of oil, and falling. |
