Energy.
It is omnipresent. It is involved in every trip to the office, every flight to a vacation, every gallon of milk at the grocery store, every keystroke on the computer. Energy is everything. It is the story of our lives.
As a civilization, we have neglected energy. We have failed to realize how important it is and have failed to properly manage it. As a result, we are now in quite a predicament. As I write this, front month crude oil is trading at $144.58/barrel. Natural Gas is at $11.82/mcf. Uranium is going for $60/lb. Despite these high prices, demand continues to rise. We are in an energy crisis.
My name is Cornelius X. Carroll. I am attending Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida and am pursuing a degree in Environmental Management with a minor in Business Administration. I frequently comment in other blogs under the screen name "GreenPlease". I have started this blog to be another "voice crying out in the desert" hoping that the general public will hear and take action.
I will use this blog to post news articles, technology roundups, and "Energy Scenarios" which are essentially futurist visions of what the energy landscape could look like accompanied by some back of the envelope math.
I hope that you learn and enjoy.
