2. "We're clueless." - Unfortunately the world will probably only be clued in when it is too late.

Thanks for keeping us posted on the incredible/horrible continuing increase in the CO2 levels at Mauna Loa (and around the world), and the current state of alternative energy sources.

In the end we will need to accept the power of nuclear fission (and with hope, fusion) to supply our needs. The little I know of the renewable non-nuclear options, they do not supply enough to keep humankind surviving. Of course if we lose 99% of the population and move into caves again, we may survive with burning biomass as we did for 100,000s of years.
