World Energy Crisis

Supplying world energy needs is a great challenge of our time.

So as aspiring populations explode it would no doubt be a crime

Not to harness the atom, empower the waves, as we beckon the sun

To provide all peoples a chance to rise up and someday be someone.

Also power of the winds, along with landfill gas and fossil fuels

Will provide an energy hungry world with indispensable tools.


World population of one billion was not generated until the year 1804.

Today it takes only twelve years to add another billion or more.

By 2050 this growth will result in 8-12 billion and stupendous energy need.

So answers must be discovered everyday for this future world to succeed.
