16. The problem with Nuclear... |
|
is that it will have its own "Peak", just like oil. I'm not sure which side of the curve we are on already but if we use it to replace the energy currently coming from oil 1:1, then its peak will be quick and over before you know it.
There isn't enough nuclear materical on Earth to sustain world (or even US) demand for long. Again, within a generation it would peak.
