So let me get this straight

I disagree with you about alternative energy. Between solar and wind energy we should really be able to meet the global economy's electricity needs. Transportation and shipping over continental distances will likely be fossil fuel based for some time to come but household, business, and commuting needs we should be met within my lifetime methinks. I also wonder if they won't get fusion working before I die.

As far as conservation is concerned...conservation is just another way to say 'don't be wasteful' which every business and government should be mindful of anyway. Best most effective use of your resources.
