There is a very simple relationship that the human race must understand about energy – Supply and Demand:

“Essentially all the energy used by humans came from the sun, only geothermal energy is not a direct solar resource.  Non-renewable energy sources, oil, coal and natural gas take between 20 and 100 million years to develop and we are using them up 100,000 times faster then they are created.  The world is running out of these resources and within the next 20 years, the world will shift to renewable energy sources because of demand and environmental concerns.  Solar energy is the most efficient renewable energy source and the world must implement it effectively if humanity is to survive, PERIOD.”
