Your Questions About Sustainable Energy For All
Sandra asks…
Governments and industries are really concerned to work towards sustainability ?
.
It is not enough that we merely switch energy sources or technologies, while maintaining an economic structure based on growth. Industrial mass production and global monoculture , no matter the system of government managing them, are antithetical to sustainability.
Overall, a sustainable economy requires that we drastically downscale and relocalize production, consumption and trade to the human level.
They make a lot of propaganda about new sustainable energy projects but how far does this environmental concern ?
.

Good luck with that, you’ll need it.
If all economies drastically down scaled, all governments lose all their taxes. Won’t ever happen, governments exist in order to create more bloated government.

If we don’t wake up, we will be using solar and wind technology purchased from the Chinese.
Most Americans aren’t smart enough to realize that we are sacrificing our future, our economy and our environment for the sake of oil companies.
admin answers:
Ethanol costs more than twice what gasoline does and causes food prices to rise because there being depleted for fuel. What we should do is tap our own vast resources of oil which is several times that of the middle east. Solar panels are a joke at best they are a supplemental energy source.
