The forced transition to occasional electricity generation from breezes and sunshine has proven to be ultra-expensive for the wealthy countries of Germany, Australia, Great Britain, and the USA representing 6 percent of the world\u2019s population (508 million vs  8 billion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those four wealthy countries now have among the highest cost for their electricity, while the poorer developing countries, currently without the usage of the 20th<\/sup>-century products made from the oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil, are experiencing about 11,000,000 child deaths every year<\/strong><\/a> due to the unavailability of the fossil fuel products used in wealthy countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, ridding the world of oil without a replacement in mind<\/em><\/strong> would be immoral and evil, as extreme shortages of the products now manufactured from fossil fuels will result in billions of fatalities from diseases, malnutrition, and weather-related deaths and could be the greatest threat to the world\u2019s population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we look outside the few wealthy countries, we see that a<\/strong>lmost half the world \u2014 over three billion people \u2014 live on less than $2.50 a day<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong> and billions living with little to no access to electricity<\/strong><\/a>, while politicians in wealthy countries are pursuing the most expensive ways to generate intermittent electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wind turbines and solar panels cannot manufacture any oil derivatives to make thousands of products such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
