How Much Oil is There Anyway…
2 Trillion barrels is the equivalent to 1.4% of the volume of the great lakes.
Less than the size of Green Bay.

Sustainability Challenges
2 Degrees Safe Global Temp rise
It’s wrong to profit from wrecking the planetIt’s time to divest from fossil fuels
5 times more coal, oil, and gas in proven reserves than is safe to burn. We need to leave 80% of it in the ground.
The fossil fuel industry wakes up every day determined to burn it all.
575 Gigatons of carbon can safely be added to the atmosphere
2795 Gigatons of carbon in proven reserves

Sustainability is the possibility that humans and other life will flourish on Earth forever
Reducing unsustainability, although critical, will not create sustainability.

Shallow Vs Deep Sustainability
Shallow Sustainability - Using efficiency and substitution to ameliorate the effects of the existing system with doing much to change the worldview the system is based on. Motivated primarily by economic value.
![Page 35: 1 introduction and overview - Energy 101 fall 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589ec1271a28ab4a5c8b6d05/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Deep Sustainability
Efficiency and substitution are in service to radical redesign based on a worldview that uses ecology as a metaphor rather than the machine, holism rather than reductionism, compliments science with many ways of knowing, and is grounded in an experiential and intellectual understanding of the unity that underlies the surface diversity of life.
![Page 36: 1 introduction and overview - Energy 101 fall 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589ec1271a28ab4a5c8b6d05/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Deep Sust Cont’d
• This worldview leads to a society that has an ethic of regeneration and renewal of human society and nature. Deep sustainability gives priority to ethical and social values while recognizing the necessity of economic viability.

Perennial Philosphy
The first peace, which is most important, is that which comes from within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the great spirit, and that this center is really everywhere — it is within each of us.” Black Elk

““It really boils down to this: that all life is interrelated. We are all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied together into a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. We are made to live together because of the interrelated structure of reality . . . Before you finish eating breakfast in the morning, you’ve depended on more than half the world. This is the way our universe is structured, this is its interrelated quality. We aren’t going to have peace on Earth until we recognize the basic fact of the interrelated structure of all reality.” Martin Luther King
“Everything is so intimately connected with every other thing in creation that it is not possible to distinguish completely the existence of one from the other. And the influence of one thing on every other thing is so universal that nothing could be considered in isolation. We have already mentioned that the universe reacts to an individual action…Therefore, the great responsibility of right and wrong lies in the individual him[or her]self on the level of his[or her] consciousness.”—Maharishi Mahesh Yogi - Science of Being and Art of Living p. 219-223

Pope Francis and Deep Sustainability
On Care For Our Common Home – Pope Francis’ Encyclical Laudato SiA year in the making and informed by a large team of mostly secular scientists, philosophers, and theologians, the encyclical
offers a blueprint for an entirely new way of living in the world. The Pope applies a comprehensive and sophisticated systems analysis to explore the root causes of environmental degradation, linking it with corrupt social structures, human failures, injustice, and inequality. He calls for a new paradigm to address these intertwined challenges.
"Because all creatures are connected, each must be cherished with love and respect, for all of us as living creatures are dependent on one another.”
Each creature has its own purpose. None is superfluous. ...The ultimate purpose of other creatures is not to be found in us. Rather, all creatures are moving forward with us and through us towards a common point of arrival, which is God.”
The notion of the common good also extends to future generations... We can no longer speak of sustainable development apart from intergenerational solidarity. We can no longer view reality in a purely utilitarian way, in which efficiency and productivity are entirely geared to our individual benefit. Intergenerational solidarity is not optional, but rather a basic question of justice, since the world we have received also belongs to those who will follow us” (para. 159).
“Rivers, polluted for decades, have been cleaned up; native woodlands have been restored; landscapes have been beautified… advances have been made in the production of non-polluting energy and in the improvement of public transportation” (para. 58). “At the same time we can note the rise of a false or superficial ecology which bolsters complacency and a cheerful recklessness.” These superficial ecologists argue that “apart from a few obvious signs of pollution and deterioration, things do not look that serious, and the planet could continue as it is for some time. Such evasiveness serves as a license to carrying on with our present lifestyles and models of production and consumption” (Sec 59) .

Why is Energy #1?• Abundant, available, affordable, clean, efficient and secure energy
would enable the resolution of all of the other problems. • We need energy for sustainability.• We need energy to maintain order in the world’s systems because of
the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics: – While energy is conserved, as it is transformed, it loses it’s usefulness, a concept
called Entropy. It takes energy from outside the system to overcome the effects of entropy and continually recreate order and structure.
– Only through a flow of high quality energy into the system (and a corresponding flow of less quality energy out) can order and structure be created. A constant flow of energy is required to maintain complex structure.
– Nature and society on Earth are able to produce order and structure only through their ability to acquire energy. Solar energy is the only place we can get this outside source of high quality energy in the long term. • Nature uses the plant photosynthesis to acquire energy for all living things. • Society uses energy systems - mostly the stored fossil energy from those plants
millions of years ago to acquire energy for civilization.

Sustainability, Entropy, Energy
![Page 50: 1 introduction and overview - Energy 101 fall 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589ec1271a28ab4a5c8b6d05/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Energy is Essential for Sustainability
• 1st law – energy is neither created nor destroyed – it is eternally cycled from one form to another
• 2nd law – energy loses useful each time it is transformed – same quantity of energy but it can no longer do the same kinds of work.
![Page 51: 1 introduction and overview - Energy 101 fall 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589ec1271a28ab4a5c8b6d05/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Energy is Essential for Sustainability
• Examples– Coffee– Car Engine– Leaky tire
• Materials Cycle • Energy flows from source to sink

Energy is Essential for Sustainability
• For Sustainability: We need a continuous source of high quality energy to offset the effects of entropy, we need solar energy

Kauai
On August 31, 2014, during daytime hours, 57% of power on Kauai was from renewable sources. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power_in_Hawaii)
Once Anahola goes on-line, solar will approach 80% of the energy demand on some days. At some times solar output may exceed demand. Kauai is a laboratory for the world on 100% renewable energy.

production of civilian vehicles– Fuel rationed at 4 gallons per week per car, dropping to 2 gallons in
1944– 35 mph speed limit, break it and loose your fuel and tire rations– Backed by marketing campaign
• Military spending– 1940: 1.9 % of GDP– 1943: 32% of GDP– GDP increased by 75%
• Campaigns to reduce meat consumption, for recycling, gardening• Dramatic increases in the level of taxation• England transition to feeding itself from backyard gardens in 1

Plentitude FundamentalsJuliet Schor
1. A New Allocation of Time – less industrial work, more time for working outside of the BAU economy and for social relations.
2. Self-provision - or make, grow, or do things for oneself. Includes new forms of hi-tech making.
3. True Materialism – it is only when we take the materiality of the world seriously that we can appreciate and preserve the resources on which spending depends.
4. restore investments in one another and our communities. While social bonds are not typically thought of in economic terms, these connections, which scholars call social capital, are a form of wealth that is every bit as important as money or material goods.
Work and spend less, create and connect more.

A New Story
The changes we need to make for sustainability – stronger, more vibrant communities, rich social connections, a sense of purpose and meaning, less industrial work, renewable energy, ecocities, coproducing and making, organic local foods, connection to nature and to our own inner being - are also the changes we need to create a better world, the world of our best dreams and aspirations.

Perennial Philosophy
• The first peace, which is most important, is that which comes from within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the great spirit, and that this center is really everywhere — it is within each of us.” Black Elk

Main Points
Energy is essential for sustainabilityThere is a deep, fundamental, and somewhat mysterious
connection between energy and the development of order, structure, and intelligence. It’s how Intelligence becomes intelligent.
Solar Energy is the source of high quality energy for creating and maintaining order and structure on Earth.
Solar energy (and all its forms) is abundant and delivered wirelessly, democratically, and for free everywhere on earth.
