It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

Until we have enough people to make it crystal clear to our idiot politicians around the world that we cannot leave it any longer if we want to survive as a species, then nothing's going to change. HOW can they be so freaking stupid. 
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)

Mmmmm, but not hard enough to scare the populous. Or better still, their leadership. Which is what we need.

Murray Grimwood, who lives in the hills north of Dunedin, has a very similar message to Mike Joy. He can be found, as "powerdownkiwi", on
Interest.co.nz . He comments there, and occasionally writes articles for the site. Some of the site denizens agree with him, but as you might expect from a business site, many are scornful, or hostile. Murray's main message is about our use of energy, how we have tapped the easily available sources, and now we are close to the point where extracting resoures uses more energy than we gain from the extraction.

We do not like being threatened, or to have our way of life challenged. And that may well spell our doom.
