See, that's the debate we should be having in this thread.
Oil vs nuclear? I'm an advocate for Moon power. And facing downwind.

Modelling can now take advantage of Big Data (from space!), and modelling algorithms evolve. An example is OpenVDB.

Low tech: terra preta on a massive scale and reforestation
Industrial tech: Thermal_depolymerization — same thing in a test tube
Nano tech: Metamaterials — there's plenty of room at the bottom.

It nice that astrophysics is coming around slowly. This appeared on Youtube, but jakobnev won't see it because he's over in the Unicorn Corral, beating a drum there.
