I came across this very nice piece at The Oil Drum today, written by David Murphy (here). His discussion about energy transitions is well worth considering (and happens to be a nice corollary to issues I raised in my last post, among others). It’s a terrific summary of significant changes in the history of mankind’s progress, and offers meaningful objectives for all of us to contemplate as we move away from fossil fuel dependency.

Waiting for magic technology to save the day will guarantee a wait, but not necessarily anything else.
