### Comment:
renewables will in no way come close to what fossil fuels provide in terms of output, unfortunately.  
  
 i'm also not too confident on oil being fairly easy to extract. if you have any sources to that fact, that'll be appreciated. 
  
 shale output in the US looks like it's about to dive off a cliff.

### REPLY:
The problem is that the 'easy' places are in unstable political environments like Venezuela where eventually if it comes to it, a western power will 'enforce peace'
