I have read a little about Mr. Guillaume Pitron's ideas and they are quite interesting. Usually, far from questioning our decisions, we tend to rush towards change.
He speaks about geostrategic and military interest in getting rid of the dependence on fossil fuels for the army. In this way, the USA could, for example, leave the Middle East oil center, and achieve self-sufficiency for its armies.
On the other hand is the supposed goodness of electricity as an energy source. As if we plugged a cable and, magically we obtained this energy. Where will it occur? MMMh? And who cares!
Curiously, today there are two disruptive elements in these hypotheses, taking into account that rare metals are needed for electrical appliances:
- The world center for the production of rare metals is China. Which would lead the dependence of the Middle East to the East Asia.
- The production and extraction of rare metals is extremely harmful to the environment.
