Re: Lazy Quote Diary: Mark Jones on Capitalist En (none / 0)
Equating energy use with a moral position (i.e. (ab)use of slaves) is an interesting argument.

I have seen the argument presented as a simple accounting metaphor for the amount of human/animal energy equivalent of fossil fuel use, without the moral overtones.

Can the last politician to go out the revolving door please turn the lights off?
