There's other things I could respond to in your post, but that was the best and very funny.

Huge CO2 sinks...like the forests we've been cutting down so rapidly, or maybe the oceans that have been force-fed so much that it is actually becoming acidic and a net CO2 source instead?

Interesting.

Could you elaborate on how "uranium and thorium" can replace oil in the supply chain so that it's possible to deploy solar, wind, and geothermal worldwide?

If you could elaborate on the methods by which uranium, thorium, wind, solar, and geothermal are able to replace petroleum as a feedstock, particularly in the production of fertilizer, pesticide, and other agricultural end-use products, it would be appreciated.

And more to the point.. a nuclear power plant isn't made of uranium.

Looks like Vogelzang has a new avatar. "What me Worry?"

What happened? Did he get banned or something?

Libya just declared force majeure on their oil exports, guess they are not worried either about honoring their contracts.
