There's a lot of noise about wind, solar and ethanol. We're working on these too, but they won't be ready to meet escalating global demands. Eighty percent of what we use today is fossil fuels; 80% of what we'll use 20 years from now is fossil fuels. The carbon molecule and combusting it is the only way we've figured out to economically move people and generate power. Diversity of supply is the answer. That means nuclear energy and investing in clean coal technology...
...just took the wind out of our sails,” Reese said. “The intensity was there, but we just played like individuals, and we really didn’t do all the things a team needs...
...Harvard concerts—added elegant color to the Bach Suite. From the Overture to the final Passepied, the orchestra kept the texture light and true to the music’s roots in dance forms.

It's not earthy-crunchy, feel-good philanthropy. Clean tech, as he sees it, promises serious returns that could rival any Internet success. In fact, Khosla wagers that the Googles and Yahoos of clean tech have yet to emerge. "Energy is subject to the same sort of scientific breakthroughs, innovation and entrepreneurial efforts that have characterized Silicon Valley's impact in microprocessors, PCs, biotechnology, telecommunications and the Internet," Khosla tells TIME. The promise of today...
