Levels of greenhouse gases are higher than the (already conservative) worst case scenario outlined by climate experts just 4 years ago. Reasons: extra pollution in China & U.S. increasing reliance on coal in developing economies

Energy has a scale of quality. The ability to do work for man depends on the energy quality and quantity and this is measurable by the amount of energy of a lower quality grade required to develop the higher grade. The scale of energy goes from dilute sunlight up to plant matter, to coal, from coal to oil, to electricity and up to the high quality efforts of computer and human information processing.

Using the high quality efforts of computer and human information processing, now we know that the available energy is just the solar energy, we now know that solar energy driven Stirling cycle machines are the only option for India and the decentralized energy model the way forward, all other systems have a dirty carbon footprint and still keep defying the thermodynamic laws, namely entropy would be disastrous.
