ENERGY 2020: A VISION OF THE FUTURE —A REPORT RETRIEVED FROM THE YEAR 2020VIA A WORMHOLE
By Lifeboat Foundation Scientific Advisory Board member José Luis Cordeiro 1
OVERVIEW
It all started late in the 20th century. In 1992, an official announcement by the World Energy Council (WEC) stated clearly that the planet was not running out of energy resources. A few years later, the International Energy Agency (IEA) also ratified that there was more than enough energy, including oil and gas, to last for many decades. Such news from two recognized institutions like the WEC and the IEA openly contradicted the pessimistic views of the previous reports of the Club of Rome, which had forecasted in 1972 that the world would be running out of resources by the end of the 20th century. The major problem with the Club of Rome's computer models and its Limits to Growth report was that they failed to consider technological change, new energy sources (all the way from deeper within the Earth to outside the planet) and resource substitution, which have been the three key energy drivers in the 21st century.
