Low-cost, high-grade coal, oil and natural gas - the backbone of the Industrial Revolution - will be a distant memory by 2050. Much higher-cost remnants will still be available, but they will not be able to drive our growth, our population and, most critically, our food supply as before.

What I'm into is making the world different for me to live in.

A revolutionary moment in the world's history is a time for revolutions, not for patching.
