    I agree so far as a practical solution to fusion power would indeed be a giant leap forward in terms of securing energy supply and fighting pollution and climate change.
    The problem is, though, that we don’t really know how far out in the future such a solution will become available, it seems that fusion energy has been a mere 15 years away for the last 30 years.

    So my point is that we should not put all our eggs in the same basket.

    Tesla’s projects …
    Tesla’s projects were unfeasible, electricity through electro-magnetic radiation transmission would not solve energy problems, and would simply create more health problems.

    Fusion is the next energy source, wait 15 years it will be applied.

    No such thing.


    No such thing.

    Wind=destroys birds which screws up the eco-system. Amount of power provide is limited

    Solar=requires large amounts of red metals which require mining to get out of the ground. Mining requires oil to run equipment. Economically not viable at current cheap oil prices.

    Nuclear=Waste vs. reward. You can plant trees to get rid of Carbon Dioxide. Nuclear waste is there forever.

    Peak oil is bullshit. No one knows how much oil there is.

    Bush could have saved the oil, Clinton could have, Tony Blair could have, John Major could have… what makes you think that the leaders of now will fulfill the promises they have been making for decades?

    There are millions of jobs in clean energy that Obama will provide! Haven’t you been listening to the news. Oil is going to run out and the only one who can save us is Obama!!

    Sure he is. Keep telling yourself that and, come 2050 when there’s no oil left: we’ll see who is right.

    No, Obama is going to provide clean energy.

    What’s Obama gonna do, grow more oil?!

    That device …
    That device transmits energy it does NOT make energy, so energy would be the same price just no power lines, possibly more radiation and cancer though.

    Theres no such thing as a free lunch, free energy does not exist

    100 years ago, …
    100 years ago, Tesla was working on a project to supply electricity at no cost and without wires when J.P. Morgan cut his financing. Had he succeeded – allow 50 years, say, for perfecting the science, solving distribution and infrastructure problems, etc – who’s to say we couldn’t have had free or unbelievably cheap electicity in unlimited amounts over the last 40 or 50 years?

    This argument about how long it will take is a non-argument. It all could have commenced decades ago.

    solar and tide are …
    solar and tide are still very expensive, when compared to oil which is very very cheap, wind has only recently become economical and reliable.
    It will take a very very long time to make them economical and if at all, how ever even with wind, solar, wave ,nuclear and every thing else we are still well short over replacing the energy that oil currently gives us, this is the real problem

    sorry, nothing is …
    sorry, nothing is free of course. but there are sources like solar, wind and tide, that once you develop the infrastructure the only costs are maintenance. sun, wind, and tides are infinitely available!

    Free energy ??
    Free energy ??

  18. sampsonoff Says:

    hopefully people …
    hopefully people realize we need to make drastic changes to survive!
    the NWO wants to continue to fill their pockets from our reliance on a fuel that costs tons of money.
    we need to fight for Free energy which will take away their control.

    The NWO wants you to think there is no peak oil!
