Survey: Given Our Energy Policies, How Likely Is It…..?
I’d like to ask a favor, if I may. We have a quick survey up on the 2GreenEnergy website – one that, interestingly enough, calls for you to predict the future. Given our current energy policies and the rate at which they’re changing, what do you think the world will be like five years from now? What events do you believe are likely to occur between now and the year 2017? Which do you think are improbable?
As usual, we’ll tabulate the results and offer you a free copy of the report that comes as a result.
And as always, we appreciate your help.

Because I have studied history, I know better than to try to predict the future.
The Washington summit on energy sponsor by the Montreux energy conservation hopefully will come up with a consensus.
The questions in this survey are not insightful. We know that we need to make revolutionary changes so the relevant question is how those changes can be implemented at the lowest possible cost. That needs to be laid out in a set of spreadsheets because the answers are substantially different in different countries and in different parts of most countries. All revolutions start with a vision and in this case the spreadsheets would provide such a vision. The notion that rational policies will somehow evolve in response to opinion polls is naive.
Policy will have less and less to do with it. People are more aware of the polution and bad subsidies we now have with fossil fuels. There are much better choices with renewables and leases with zero down make it easy to switch for things like solar.
Gas prices will continue to jump higher and higher making EVs look very low cost and guilt free. Nature is the policy that will always win and Global Warming can’t be ignored.
The future is difficult to predict. Policy and market forces will determine the development.
If today’s newly developed energy solutions will come to market, the next 5 years be the beginning of a change totat in most areas where endless amounts of cheap clean energy is important for world development.
Over time, today’s new energy sources could replace most of today’s commonly used energy sources that pollute our environment and ecosystems, and requires large investments and much of the world’s limited resources.

Let’s hope the weakest (the majority of the world population) party wins.

Dear friends i hope that if we are coordinating with these ideas, and making gruob to participate in the (Rio+20 Corporate Sustainability Forum: Innovation and Collaboration for the Future We Want ) I hope that our participation at the forum sponsored by 2green energy
