This Is the Beginning of the Age of...Extinction

[Think. Again.]

15. Rather than just waiting...

Rather than just waiting for society to collapse in 50 years, wouldn't it be better to ramp up non-fossil fuel power generation as fast as possible while decreasing power waste (I read somewhere that 65% of electricity produced is considered unneccesary or wasted, think of huge shopping malls lit up all night with no one in them, etc, I'll try to find those citations) and adapting to even less use of "neccesary" power (I really don't need a digital clock on every appliance in my kitchen glowing 24 hours a day)

And yes, I agree that we have let our population expand to unsustainable numbers even WITH some magical endless supply of power.
