Readily available reserves of oil and gas are sufficient to take atmospheric CO 2 to at least 400 ppm. Oil and gas are such convenient fuels, and the world has developed such a strong dependence on them, that it is very likely that the large readily available pools of these fuels will be exploited.

Between 2010 to 2030 the contribution to energy growth of renewables (solar, wind, geothermal and biofuels) is seen to increase from 5% to 18%. Natural gas is projected to be the fastest growing fossil fuel, and coal and oil are likely to lose market share as all fossil fuels experience lower growth rates. Coal will increase by 1.2%

World oil prices have fallen sharply from their July 2008 high mark. As the world’s economies recover, higher world oil prices are assumed to return and to persist through 2030. In the IEO2009 reference case, world oil prices rise to $110 per barrel in 2015 (in real 2007 dollars) and $130 per barrel in 2030.

Solar, Wind and Biofuels Grew 53 Percent in 2008 Green Education = Environmental Religion? Smart Grid City will easily support up to 1,000 easily dispatched distributed generation technologies including PHEVs, distributed batteries, solar and wind. Millions of EVs and PHEVs would expand the sale of electricity as an alternative to oil.

Price tag: about $25,000, made from 95% recyclable materials with a top speed of 65 miles per hour and range of 110 miles per charge. As soon as someone comes up with all day range (300 miles plus) or quick charge capability (less than 30-60 minutes) for a reasonable price (25k - 40k), electric cars will start to take over.

But it is a price that must be paid, and GM should be commended for remaining committed to the Volt. GM killed that car because of back room deals with oil companies, and now they expect us to believe that they are just so cutting edge now? THE GOV NEEDS TO GET THIER HEADS OUT OF THE SAND,THIS IS SO BIG. It is 12 years later.
