Quote from the Underground
“Expecting some other energy resource to provide energy on the same scale and level of concentration that petroleum does – simply because we happen to want one – is a little like responding to one huge lottery win by assuming that when that money starts running out, another equally large win can be had for the cost of a few more tickets. . . . [T]his is exactly the mentality of current attempts to fuel industrial society by pouring our food supply into our gas tanks.
