MIT researchers conclude fundamental changes in the US energy-innovation system are needed to meet challenges of climate change and energy supply

Green Car Congress

The energy/climate debate of rent years has been dominated by the idea that the price of fossil fuels must be raised to reflect the full cost of their use. If the consent of the governed is granted only grudgingly or not at all, such a program will inevitably be hamstrung by resistance and will remain at constant risk of reversal.
