Energy: topic number one

We're going to do the first few blog postings on the problems and proposed solutions to the world's energy crisis. Yes, this is a depressing subject. What we'd like to show is that there is, actually, a lot to be optimistic about out there. Many of the top researchers in the world are working on clever solutions to our energy "crisis". Maybe because there is a lot of money in it, maybe because they want their grandchildren to live as well as they have - the motives don't really matter. What matters is that there are some good ideas that need to be discussed and maybe even implemented. Thats what we do. So thats what you'll get. Enjoy!
