"History shows that the result of inadequate energy supplies is often
collapse or a resource war, in an attempt to obtain more of the
necessary resources"
The Climate Change Story Is Half True
The climate change story is true is some respects: The climate is
indeed changing. And CO2 emissions do seem to affect climate. Burning
fossil fuels does indeed make a difference in CO2 levels.
The problem I have with the climate change story is that it paints a
totally inaccurate story of the predicament the world is facing. The
world’s predicament arises primarily from too little affordable resources,
especially energy resources; climate change models tend to give the
illusion that our problem is one of a superabundance of fossil fuels.
Furthermore, the world economy has no real option of using
significantly less energy, because the economy tends to collapse when
there is not enough energy. Economists have not studied the physics of
how a networked economy really works; they rely on an overly simple supply and demand model that seems to suggest that prices can rise endlessly.
