Thomas L. Friedman Quote
With the steady drop in the price of renewable energy and efficiency, it now costs the same to destroy the climate or save it, said Harvey. The price is basically the same, but at the micro scale there will be different winners and losers. Coal and oil companies and traditional utilities will lose out. Wind, solar, hydro, nuclear, and efficient and distributed energy purveyors will win. At the macro scale, though, the whole world will win or the whole planet will lose. The impact will hit every generation going forward and will not respect national boundaries in the least. It
