Approval of the Keystone pipeline will lock us in to decades of dependency on this dirty energy at a time when we need to develop clean sources of energy.
"Energy efficiency is an important and compelling low-cost option," Mr. Creyts said, "but there are reasons that we need to innovate and continue to develop clean sources of energy".
We must act now to develop clean sources of energy and curb emissions of global warming pollution.
We need the same level of commitment when it comes to developing clean energy sources.
Their new foundation's priorities involve connecting the developing world to the internet, personalising learning in schools using technology, and developing clean energy sources.
Examining eight methods to reduce or stop global warming, Lomborg and his fellow economists recommend pouring money into researching and developing clean energy sources such as wind, wave, solar and nuclear power, and more work on climate engineering ideas such as "cloud whitening" to reflect the sun's heat back into the outer atmosphere.
Each year, the world's demand for coal, oil, and gas to power factories, cars, and homes increases — and no plan to reduce emissions is likely to succeed unless it includes a major commitment to developing clean, renewable sources of energy.
Orbital debris could block all these benefits for centuries and prevent us from developing clean energy sources like space solar power satellites, exploring our Solar System and someday making humanity a multi-planetary civilization capable of surviving true climatic catastrophes.
WE CAN SAVE ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF MONEY by developing clean energy sources ASAP.
What's needed, says the report, is to combine developing clean energy sources with lowering energy use.
