Enough is enough!
by shiva on Jun 20, 2008 06:39 AM

Let us quit en-masse! Every morning the nuclear deal or non-deal glares at us. Now even the PM had enough! A very good excuse to quit and take stock of life!



MMS is not able to convert the non-believers! Others dilly-dally. It is time to a take hard look at the options available in a non-political platform. Yes, some are dreamers!



The noose is tightening and we are gasping for breath. Eighty percent dependency on Gulf countries for energy is plain suicide. The oil rich are having a party and increasing their internal feeding frenzy. Some like China & Indonesia have become importers. The latter quit OPEC - why part of a caucus to raise the prices while an importer?



Nuclear plants take over ten years. Oil at $130 going 200 is fertile ground for renewable energy. Already, Germany & Japan are leaders. US consuming three times energy while having quarter of China population is the culprit. Already post-Bush scenario looks to be good for renewables. When they move the world will do likewise! They can make change.



Let us not compromise and put our heads on the line in a hurry now. We can be held to ransom for technology & later for fuel. We should tie- up for solar, wind, geo-thermal. A break-through is enough to put the oil behind us. After all, bicycle repairers flew the air-planes before airospace engineers! Let us bite the bullet and take advantage of high oil & nuclear non-deal to goad us! Let Bush keep the outdated technology! We turn to nature!
