Abstract:
Even though Bjørn Lomborg and his colleagues at the Copenhagen Consensus 2004 does not recognize the energy shortage in the world as being among the world’s biggest concerns, there are those who think that if you don’t solve the energy problem, no other concern really matters. Nobel Laureate Richard Smalley is one of the many to point out the following: We can not supply the peoples of the world with enough energy in the coming decades using current technology. Oil and gas just does not cut it.
