Yeah we need to quit hoping/waiting for the technical marvel that's going to allow us to continue travelling and consuming energy the same way we have been for the last number of decades.
I know it's not popular, especially in North America, but the painful reality is that if we're actually serious about about conservation, we need to slow the $@%# down. Same as speeding up a little increases consumption a whole lot, slowing down a little decreases consumption by a whole lot. Airliners and cargo ships go slower now than they did 40 years ago, not because we're forgotten how to make them go fast.
2 ton luxury boats going 90mph down the highway is NOT the future, even if they're electric. Electricity still has a cost, and will continue to be finite for the foreseeable future.
