Until governments and the oil industry allows us to begin using water as fuel(which is now possible) NOTHING WILL CHANGE.
Since energy is a multi-trillion dollar industry and water is free for everyone, don't expect us to be able to save ourselves anytime soon.

All the more reason for worldwide family planning programs, and birth control, which the Republicans support - NOT !!!! Which the Catholic Church supports - NOT !!! Which muslims and Mormons and Orthodox Jews support - NOT !!!! Face it, we're doomed. The solutions stare us in the face, but our stupidity prevents us from implementing any meaningful program. We criticize China for enforced population control, but look what they've accomplished. Anyone who's ever kept guppies can see what's happening on this rock.

It sounds like Big Oil has bought off the United Nations now so they can feed us some more of their over-priced gas and ease their conscience in doing so. Wait until they announce their profits again this quarter!! Greedy freaks!!

I want to see verifiable PROOF from now on.

After Georgie's countless lies and proven blunders, I have lost my faith totally in government findings, even at a worldwide level now...

This might sound a bit cold, but if the price of food was to skyrocket, perhaps people, especially in developing countries, would temper their breeding and reduce the numbers who are born. This seems like a positive outcome. Less people, less need for energy. Less people in developing countries, less poor and less misery.

Sounds like a win-win to me...

Look into hydroponic farming. They could grow these fuels stacked on top of each other on shelves in a greenhouse. Without even using/leeching soil.
