7. quot;Regardless
of which route we
choose, the world's
current predicament
limits our maneuvering
room. We are
experiencing a
step-change in the growth
rate of energy demand
due to population growth
and economic
development, and Shell
estimates that after
2015 supplies of
easy-to-access oil
and gas will no
longer keep
up with
demand.quot;

48. “In the past, we didn’t understand the effect
of our actions. Unknowingly, we sowed the
wind and now, literally, we are reaping the
whirlwind. But we no longer have that
excuse: now we do recognise the
consequences of our behaviour. Now surely,
we must act to reform it: individually &
collectively; nationally & internationally.”
David Attenborough
“Search all the parks in all your cities; you'll
find no statues of committees.” David Ogilvy
1911-1999

49. ‘If future generations
are to remember us
more with gratitude
than contempt, we
must leave them
more than the
miracles of
technology. We must
leave them a glimpse
of the world as it was
in the beginning, not
just after we got
through with it.’
Lyndon B. Johnson
