Hari on Oil Addiction

...And right in line with my previous blog is an article by Johann Hari in the Independent on Oil addiction.

Hari:

"We are going to have to make the transition to fuelling our societies by the mighty power of the sun, the wind and the waves sooner or later. The technology exists today. It can be done without us regressing to caves, or any of the other ludicrous myths pumped out by the oil lobby."

...Which is exactly what Bucky Fuller claimed thirty years ago in Critical Path. We've known this was coming for generations. And it can be done; but I think the question of whether it will be done depends upon timing.
