With global population expected to still rise in coming decades, and the population especially in China and India growing into higher lifestyle standards, energy consupmtion will not decline, but will steeply rise in the next 20-30 years. Until 2035 and 2040, various studies done by different organisations expect rises of 25 to 40 percent. There simply will be no cut in global energy consumption, forget about it. What Germany does, in the global scheme of tings is irrelvevant - we just wast our money that we then do not have for other tasks. The world right doe snot wait to see what the germans are doping, and it doe snot wait to be shown the way by the Germans, and nboody is set to follow the German exmaple. Thats German self-deception.
