I think it’s interesting what he says about coal useage in China. We are maybe heading towards times where we have trains powered by coal just like they still have in China.

If I’m not far out of track, the world still has some amount of coal left. Maybe we should turn the volume a little bit down on the car and a little bit up on trains and other public transportation. Then we might make the transition a bit softer for mankind from cheap oil to the right price of oil. The algae must be surprised how we treat their earthly corpses 🙂 (the prise being totally out of proportion!)
