It was a 1935 Morris 8 for which I had paid £25 and it was my first car, so I proudly drove it home to Leicester from London and invited my Mum for a test drive. Expressing some reservation she insisted on riding in the back. Upon entering, she fell through the floor. I subsequently replaced the wood with something less rotten.

Posted By: pcstruPosted By: enginerdProsperity and energy consumption are the same thing.
Err... seems rather dodgy.
Two brothers, live next door to each other in identical dwellings with identical lifestyles. Only one is gifted £1million by their favourite aunt. Other than put it in the bank, he changes nothing. He is now more prosperous but consumes the same energy. So, no.
Posted By: AngusI agree with you. It's a historical observation. The prescription for the future has to be either
(A) make energy more easily available to all
Or
(B) use a smaller share.
So far the focus is on A, witness fusion for example, but the only practical solution is B
Posted By: enginerdBut B means live a less prosperous life. Prosperity is not having wealth, it is USING wealth.

Right. Exactly. Genau. Vero.
The only way forward for humanity is to use less. This means each person using less, or fewer persons using the same amount. The first option inevitably leads to all persons having nothing to use, the second option is a pipe dream.

Posted By: AngusI note that people look for Dyson spheres in the infrared. The significance for their inhabitants seems never to be discussed. Kardashev I, II and III be damned!Isaac Arthur gets it, at least. But your point about increasing Earth's energy use is well-taken.
