Free Report: How Sustainable Is Our Way of Life?
Here’s another in our continuing series of free reports based on the reader surveys we do here at 2GreenEnergy. Those of us who are wondering what life on Earth will be like in 10 or 20 years will want to grab this 17-pager on our planet’s overall sustainability: http://2greenenergy.com/jan-survey-report/
Will the global economy recover after the resolution of the U.S. recession, the European debt crisis, and other immediate woes?
Will technological innovation outpace population growth, the depletion of resources, and man’s impact on the natural environment?
Will mankind gain a better understanding of the impact it’s made on the natural environment, raising awareness of our need to reduce, re-use, and recycle, and driving innovation in clean tech?
Will we enter a sustained period of negative economic growth, created by our civilization’s having “hit the wall” with respect to scarcities in energy, water, and food?
Again, here’s the report: http://2greenenergy.com/jan-survey-report/. I hope you enjoy it.
I cannot access this report. It says I have completed my registration on the email message?
I’ll email it to you. Sorry for the issue.
The report may make interesting reading. However, even without reading it, it should be obvious that our way of life is not sustainable. That will become even more obvious as China, India, and other countries strive to lift themselves out of poverty.
Even though our way of life is not sustainable, it may be that our standard of living is sustainable, provided that we shift away from fossil fuels, make changes to agriculture, and make other changes as well.
Hi Gents,
The bridge between conventional energy and something seems to be the non-conventional oil and gas reserves. The ocean thermal energy route can be at the other side of the bridge, cleanly and without serious environmental or health constraints. First commercial plants to be commissioned by 2014.
