Other than perhaps short term interruptions resulting
from market forces or geopolitical events, it is not antici-
pated that there will be any long term material constraints
that would prevent the development of a significant amount
of energy from photoelectric cells. Reserve estimates are not
static; although a particular metal might be considered rare
and scarce, if a profit can be made from its recovery, then there
will likely be no long-term shortage. Technological advance-
ments driven by the desire to produce energy at a lower cost
will likely result in increases in efficiency requiring smaller
amounts of these metals per unit of energy produced, substitu-
tion with other materials, and other advancements in science.
Given that this is /v/collapse, I'd say you fucked up in trying to use this particular paper.
My bad....still the earth is finite. Just because they say this doesn't mean we have those means locked in yet! It is still tantamount, to "We'll figure out eventually." Same thing everyone says about everything. We have no answers still.
