There are some good points in that. Personally I don't think we can do
anything significant against climate change (man-made or not), but I think
it's good that the "climate panic" is fuelling efforts to move away from
wasteful technologies and habits. Even if there were no ill side effects to
burning coal, oil or uranium--if we keep depleting natural resources at the
(increasing) rate as we're doing today, we'll painfully hit a brick wall
sooner or later anyway. Climate-neutral technologies are resource-neutral
as well, so nations and societies that invest in such technologies today
will be the winners tomorrow.

Not a brick wall. Resources will taper off in avaibility and increase
in price, but not suddenly. All the things the UN wants to force will
pretty much happen on their own, at their natural pace, without the UN
getting their corrupt hands on trillions in energy taxes.

By inventing new energy technologies today, one ensures that the
patents will have run out before they are needed or economically
feasible. That's good.
