2. Per your request, consider yourself corrected - biomass is CO2 neutral.
Pessimists have been predicting the end of double digit growth in renewables for a decade now, and they continue to be wrong. When you are tempted by that thought, it is handy to keep both the scale of the transition in mind (we are just starting to ramp up) and the fact that the evidence of AGW is actually very convincing for most of the leaders of the world. They are fighting a large group of very powerful interests, but their efforts are creating a set of economic circumstances that should balance the power/money equation with more than enough new winners to offset the entrenched energy interests trying to maintain their hold on the world's energy supply.
