@zanderchamp Other than rail geothermal can't provide transportation. Nor can it provide the none transportation items you use everyday, that come from petroleum.
-
@waswestkan The other issue with wind, besides lower a lower EROEI, is you lose power the further your transport it...
-
The thing is the solution will not be on technology,but a broad mix of tech. Going to be difficult to find a source t that has the energy return ratio of petroleum & is as portable. not to mention all the other products that from from it. I have to believe abiotic oil is a pipe dream. AFAIK no 1 has put forth a workable postulation how the building blocks made it to such depths.

@rainbowsalads I believe U meant HVDC & yes HVDC transmission lines will be need. That's why the Pickens plan failed, he couldn't get nobody to build the transmissions to connect the turbines to the big cities.
-
@rainbowsalads The answer is a lower standard of living and people being physically involved with food production. We'll be forced to remember what it means to be human again rather than just pressing buttons all day etc... we have computers, cars fridges and pencils because of the cheap oil gift we were given...

@Clausewitzz It's probably better than ethanol form corn since it needs less energy inputs to grow etc... the energy returned on energy invested is not 20 to 1 like an oil field..... maybe it's 2 to 1... or 3 to 1..

@poltoja I'll answer in next video. Implement guaranteed gas tax hikes, 50 cents a gallon per year for 10 years....
What about zero point energy??? Why burn anything??? Is this some new world order murder the developing world by starvation idiot channel??/Oh yeh it's a fashionable new world order middle class hippie thing to be into ethanol and windmills...oh yeh and clock work radios....why don't we just go and explore the universe??? LMFAO...go back to sleep guys....if you were awake enough to hear that...go back to sleeeeeeeeeeeep zzzzzzzzzz

@888Quetzalcoatl888 I'll stick with the laws of thermodynamics until they are proven wrong. Thanks for the comment..

I've been following the American presidential election, and though there is not that much talk about energy in the debates, what politician do you think is the best (or least worst) choice for the future energy problems we face? If you look at the different investment they have made, Ron Paul is the only one who has invested most of his money in silver and gold. Is this a sign that this man knows whats about to happen with regards of energy and economics?

@sangolt88 Thanks for the comment. It doesn't matter because Presidents can't change oil geology. Paul won't get elected because people don't want the truth or hear our painful reality. I'm sure they all have silver and gold. I can't imagine Mitt not having some bullion in a private vault dwarfing the amount what Paul has by 10 times...
