I'm not against responsible implementation of WWS. I am skeptical about keeping the grid going, much less a supergrid, but I like this paragraph:</p> <blockquote> <p>To make a WWS world work, we also need to reduce demand. Reducing demand by improving the efficiency of devices that use power, or substituting low-energy activities and technologies for high-energy ones—for example, telecommuting instead of driving—directly reduces the pressure to produce energy.</p> </blockquote> <p> </p> <p>*Architects Investigating Energy, Entropy, Etc.</p> </div></div></div> Thu, 22 Sep 2011 16:54:19 +0000 Donal comment 134798 at http://dagblog.com
