Use of any kind of energy will in the absence of limiting restraint increase if any energy becomes more efficient to use. The inter-dependencies between energy supplies is huge. A fact not appreciated. Energy sources do not replace each other. The truth is they reinforce each other. Use of one increases the use of others through links that are both physical and through links that result exclusively from human nature.
Most people will regard what I just wrote a blasphemy.
More like an anicient concept replaced by the far superior modern version. Try "rebound effect" and check out the research. Sure, a Ford Model-T was original and cool....a long time ago...and this ain't that time, and a Model T sure ain't a Ford GT40.
