Energy

I found an old library catalog card today. It has the information for a Yergin, Daniel. Some review or other about energy future, a report of the Energy Project at the Harvard Business School. It says that the volume "[a]nalyzes the current energy crisis and provides recommendations for an energy policy based on conservation and the development of solar technology." The card is from 1979. How pitiful that the more things change, the more they stay the same. But perhaps it is more than that. Maybe it's not about the millions of barrels a day we consume, but about the reality that no fail-proof policy can change. Sad world, really.
