There is going to be NO global warming. How / Why? Because with the continued use of oil, when its all done, there will no longer be any green house issues. (Unless you use tar sand as an oil source)

The focus should be on sustained development, not with ALTERNATE energy sources, don't use those to describe where we are heading, but with the inevitable energy sources that will re-create the present and create the future.
