But trends don't have to be sustainable. Things change. "Sustainability" is a Greenie cliche meaning nothing much. We don't need sustainable energy supplies. While they are cheap, we can use them, when they aren't cheap, we can do something else other than use energy. Maybe play badminton instead of flying at 10 km high and 1000 kph. There are many ways to live and they don't all depend on burning a lot of oil. <But GDP has been rising, and the energy use per capita has been rising. It's an unsustainable trend, > I used to enjoy using a lot of energy, driving around all day, flying hither and yon. Now it seems a lot of effort. Even if the petrol was free I wouldn't use more of it. I don't want a bigger vehicle and I don't want to do more kilometres. Mqurice
