It's not easy being green

As I've been saying for a while, resource limitations will stop the "green 
tech."/efficiency technological revolution from happening in the way depicted in 
the media. An excellent report from Newsnight's Paul Mason explains why:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/newsnight/8366603.stm

Forget hybrid cars or concentrating solar power, the future is all about 
'Limits to Growth' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Limits_to_Growth) -- the 
future is food, and community and cooking, as it's been for the many 
millennia. Just accept that, move on and start deciding what you're going to 
get rid of from your "modern" lifestyle.

"We are not for names, nor men, nor titles of Government,
nor are we for this party nor against the other but we are
for justice and mercy and truth and peace and true freedom,
that these may be exalted in our nation, and that goodness,
righteousness, meekness, temperance, peace and unity with
God, and with one another, that these things may abound."
(Edward Burroughs, 1659 - from 'Quaker Faith and Practice')

Paul's book, "Energy Beyond Oil", is out now!
