Its been over 200 years that electricity has been discovered. We are now dependent on electricity like never before. If there is a big enough blackout on earth our whole lives would come to a standstill. No music, no lights, no A/Cs, no computers. Life as we know it would come to a halt, throwing back civilization 200 years.
Now we have become addicted to electricity and just like a drug addict needs a bigger and bigger dose of the vile stuff, we are mining more coal, more barrels of oil are being drawn out, more nuclear reactors are being planned.
All this makes me wonder, how long can this be sustained? If we try to look at 200 years from now, will we have a society that thinks electricity is a relic of the past. Will we have a world where the main energy is not electricity? Is there an alternative to electricity to power our music players, cars, lights, A/Cs, computers, which would be cleaner and be more compatible with our spaceship technologies.
