Using the Internet's History to Develop Clean Energy's Future

From the Article:

<"....and I've recently switched cars, dropping from 12 to four cylinders....">

All I can say is that if the writer is an example of fuel-hogging US persons, he should be ashamed of such squandering of oil from the Planetary Bank.

<"....But I don't think for a moment that we're going to conserve our way out of the energy crisis. Internet history shows that prosperity depends on abundant bandwidth. Prosperity (gross domestic product, per capita) is proportional to energy use. We are not going to lower per capita consumption of energy in the U.S. We are going to enable the rest of the world to be as prosperous by using not less but more energy.....">

What's wrong with this writer?

If all the inhabitants of the world used the same amount of energy resource as the writer, we would have run out of energy resources long ago.

No now more equals less - somehow.

Kind Regards....
