@KrunchyJD yes there's an energy crisis , the world can be powered easily with what I call green energy. new energy 5 inventions cheaper than oil or coal and renewable probably easily cut oil and coal by 90% within 15 years power trucks, cars , trains, homes and businesses. All within the next year I hope to be powering my home and car very cheap energies

Electric cars, yeah right, how will you generate the required extra energy to power them. Most likely by burning coal, or another non renewable in an extra power station. Why not use less oil by replacing car trips with bicycle trips where possible, and making cities on a human scale.
