Have you checked the amount of thick goop in Venezuela? It's hundreds of years quantity.

Tell you what... You keep your goop. I'll keep the photons from the sun.

Vastly more power with photons from the sun.

In less than an hour the Earth receives from the Sun the equivalent amount of energy mankind uses in a year for everything.

Ships, aircraft and everything terrestrial mankind uses...

Just a few weeks of sunlight striking the Earth equals and exceeds all of the fossil fuel energy stored on the planet.

Peak People will be in 2037 so that will limit the amount of carbon wanted.

You got me chuckling at that one... Not going to stop. Way too early!

Keep working on your finite goop. It's just too expensive to reform that stuff.

Hard to lock up all that C without causing problems.

I prefer collecting photons without lifting a finger.
