We must realize and that we are not in an energy crisis we're in an energy opportunity. We would be in an energy crisis if there were no alternatives for fossil fuels. Fortunately there are multiple opportunities to replace fossil fuels. As the technologies advance it will become much cheaper (and cleaner) to produce energy by converting the sun, wind and waves into energy than by drilling thousands of feet underground to pump up the liquid remains of decomposed animals.

Clean and renewable energy is perhaps the biggest economic opportunity in human history.
