There has never been a single source of energy. Today, energy, while dominated by hydrocarbons, is extremely complex, with hydro-electric, solar, wind, nuclear and geothermal making contributions to the global energy mix.
While complex, the future will see a growing domination of base load energy coming from Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) and several technologies that capitalize upon tidal and temperature forces in the ocean. Land based hydro-electric, enhanced by wind, will provide nominal, additional base load. Where feasible, solar energy will be used to shape supply to more closely match the demand profile and decrease peak shaving needs.
Even with all this, locally available, reasonably priced and mostly carbon neutral energy sources, there will undoubtedly be some gaps in cost effective supplies. In those areas, nuclear and biofuels will likely be used.

Hi all, I live in Canada. And the article " The Inappropriately Excluded " is really something that deeply resonates with me, and has helped make sense of my life. That I've been going back to it for years as a reference. But today found out there is this meetup group. Excellent stuff!
So I'm wondering what are people's interests here?
I like transition planning, and how we'll get through the end of oil,
archival of important documents, talking to international advisors and politicians about it. Also run several businesses. And do a lot of religious stuff,
cause that's best way of connecting with the uh IQ challenged majority in terms they can understand. So for that I run anabaptist.ca and got like outreach for all sorts of faiths, like humanism, islam, communists, chinese, hindus, christians etc: https://anabaptist.ca/dyet/
Hi! Just joined. I discovered this group through the Inappropriatelt Excluded article and it hit home. Looks very interesting :)
After Dobbs v Jackson, people are saying they want to move to Canada? Why? There is no part of Canada that allows abortion after 23 weeks. And, of course, nowhere in Europe are abortions legal after 24 weeks. So, if one really feels that access abortion is so important, the best thing to do is move to California. It has the most Progressive abortion laws pretty much anywhere, save China, North Korea, and Vietnam. Honestly, if this is your thing, then you should move to California. Whatever state you are in, they will celebrate your departure.
