Abundant oil and gas are putting the kabosh on clean energy

Oil & Gas are Putting the Kabosh on Clean Energy

Peter Schwartz, Wired
Since the 1950s, the US has had a perverse approach to energy. In effect we have maximized demand by building bigger, hungrier cars, homes, and lifestyles and minimized supply by limiting oil drilling, coal mining, and nuclear development. And how do we make up the difference? We buy oil from the people who hate us most.http://www.wired.com/business/2012/08/mf_naturalgas/
