Let me congratulate you on your special report on energy (“The Power and the Glory,” June 21, 2008). Its eight sections outline the range of possibilities we have for dealing with our outdated dependence on fossil fuels, such as coal and oil. There is nothing you leave out: wind, solar, geothermal, biofuel, and even nuclear energy, assuming it is properly reformed. There are opportunities galore, and it is only a matter of time until we master them all. Splendid. But the last section is the most interesting. Entitled “Flights of Fancy,” it paraphrases Giuseppe di Lampedusa (The Leopard) in the subtitle: “The world of energy must change if things are to continue as before.” Indeed. Many of your readers will be more than happy to know that they can continue just as before because the world of energy cannot but change. In fact, it simply must. In the meanwhile, let the experts do their thing. There are plenty of them around the globe, anyhow, as your review keeps repeating. Congratulations once again!
