Thank you for inviting me here today to make this presentation about the future of our natural energy reserves. I know some of you will already be familiar with the complex nature of this subject and I hope you __________ forgive me for trying to deal with it in only 45 minutes.
If we look back to twenty years ago I can recall how confident people were that nuclear energy __________ provide the ultimate energy source and I don’t think that anyone at that time __________ possibly imagine the impact that the accident at Chernobyl __________ have on our confidence in that industry. While the nuclear industry __________ still hold out some hope for a nuclear-powered future – this time in the form of nuclear fusion – it now looks like it __________ be some time before the necessary technologies are in place for it to succeed. Indeed some skeptics ___________ even go as far as to say that ___________ never be the case! So from a world of confidence we now face the uncomfortable facts: fossil fuels are finite resources and while they __________ be sufficient to carry our economies through the next few decades, there is no doubt that beyond that horizon new sources of energy ___________ have to be developed in order to sustain our current economic model.
