REBUILDING WORLD

RE: REBUILDING WORLD
First I haven't looked at the information on John's link, if that has any bearing on anything.

Secondly I'm in total agreement with what Steve has posted.

Thirdly, John's post is of a familiar theme to others he has posted (take the pencil example) and is focused solely on the situation that after an event, the world will lose all traces of its manufacturing capabilities, including the factories etc and all associated knowledge and that everything that has ever been manufactured, will also, over a finite time period, simply turn to dust. And furthermore that mankind will not evolve during this time or develop alternative strategies or techniques or technologies and therefore all of mankind is doomed. Well, as an engineer myself, I don't agree with this or see that as being a likely scenario.

In my opinion, even if mankind cannot manufacture new Solar Panels after any future event (which is a possibility), you can be sure he will use and cannibalise whatever he can get his hands on and additionally, other maybe more primitive means of generation will quickly be developed, even if they are Heath Robinson in nature.

And if we are in that situation, lets not forget that the future power needs are only going to be a tiny fraction of todays requirements!
