Nope.

First off, the Global Warming crowd are wrong.

Second, it takes energy to make technology.

Third, finding new resources means we won't get gouched by the Saudis.

Forth, regulation can fix the speculators.

Fifth, all economies are based on hydrocarbon energy in the entire world, and if they have to go without, everything grinds to a halt - life as you know it.

Sixth, whats wrong with hydrocarbons if you can provide them for the next 300 years? 300 years worth of hydrocarbon based gas is hardly a band-aid - some people claim we may only have 200 years worth in this country at our present rate of consumption, but 200 to 300 years? Who cares? Kind of puts Saudi Arabia out of the picture, no?

Seventh, why simply transfer the power baton to a new energy mogul? That is all you are describing. Enron guys will simply move next door. They went from Electricity, to oil and gas, to in the future, green tech. They don't care as long as they are getting rich.

Need i go on?
