Honesty
Details We have a big problem with honesty. The world is counting on us for technology solutions to the problems of global warming and dependence on fossil fuels.

We are all too eager to participate in rather delusional enterprises like ocean thermal energy, carbon capture and storage and hydrogen and fuel cells. Now we will be honest with society about the fact that there are no solutions, only hard choices and big changes.
