An article in CleanTechnica describes how we are in a carbon bubble. Renewable energy sources are expanding quickly at reduced cost, leading to a likely mass stranding of fossil-fuel related assets as fossil fuels become more expensive than renewable sources of energy.
The current push for natural gas (and with it the related push for hydrogen fuels) is the last gasp of the fossil fuel industry. Hydrogen as a fuel source can only economically be produced from fossil fuels and hence provides no net reduction in carbon emissions, but the fossil fuel lobby are trying to convince people that it is a viable alternative to electric cars.
When the carbon bubble does burst, the impact on asset valuations is likely to be huge, with consequent impact on the larger economy.
Where do you plan to be when the carbon bubble pops?

I got bad news for you honey, that "cow" you milked that one time was really a bull.

Since when do bulls have four squishy penises hanging off a big fleshy bag? SOMEONE here failed biology and it's not me. But do tell us of your bull-milking exploits, since you seem to have extensive and detailed experience with the procedure :)

Just because you have gone to college and studied the difference between cows and bulls doesn't mean that others have.
Twinkie farmers use large machines to go through the field, row by row, harvesting the delicious nutritious twinkies.
