So even after all these brilliant energy savings have been made (assuming industry can actually achieve them) our consumption and pollution will still go up... not much of an answer... we really can't win unless population growth is stopped too.

watching this video is a waste of energy

[DimitriPetrenko]

The production of this video is a waste of energy.....

By 2030 it is predicted that comercial fusion reactors will be possile so I'd say there is your future source of energy. (source: New Scientist)

[DTSchey09]

what is the single future source of energy? = energy efficiency... LOL what? Energy efficiency is not a source of energy, it decreased energy the energy needed it is absolutely NOT a 'source' of energy.

I agree with you overall, and I really like your animation but your script is horrible.

[Cschive]

No, the most effective future source of energy will be nuclear energy, fission, and the Sun itself, there is no other way. The alternative energy efficient idea is that we recognize the maximum population on this planet and enforce it

[ZacharySchroeder]

Get more form less? Sounds like overtime. =D

[titykaka1]

its a good job climate change isnt man made then isnt it :D

[bisono64]

@Westmustard Yes thats one solution but what about having cars run on carbon dioxide

[JimiHendrix574]

I just think we're way past this point of being able to pull it back. We got a one way ticket to doomsday, the only question is when do we arrive.

I'm not liking the math in this video at all..like +53% energy consumtion and +55 % pollutiontoo>16% and 11% ?  and +55% more polution is not saying that the global emission of CO2 is increasing with 55% it says the pollution that The human creates goes up with 55% that's like going from 3% to 4,65% not so dramatic as they say, but not to forget too. And all the procceses to create the platics for isolation for millions of homes is going to raise that number even more.synergethic homes > future
