Thought of the Week:
 
Global energy demand will triple by the year 2050, leaving the world in a gaping shortfall equal in size to the industry’s total output in 2000, Royal Dutch Shell cautioned Monday in a report on the future of energy use … Already factored into the shortfall are improvements to energy efficiency that moderate demand by 20 per cent, and supply growth that could expand by 50 per cent, taking into account technological, geological, competitive, financial and political realities.
