Decarbonizing Our Energy Resources
The meme here came from an ill-informed reader.
One could say that the 20th Century was defined by the fossil fuel industry. Virtually all of the huge advancements that humankind came to enjoy in the 1900s were rooted in an abundance of cheap energy, and that was brought to us almost exclusively in the form of oil, natural gas, and petroleum.
The 21st Century, on the other hand, will be defined by the transition to low-carbon sources of energy, primarily solar, wind, and nuclear.
