Clearly Mr Toole has not grasped the reality that solar radiation is the only resource that the planet has in unlimited supply.
The reserves of everything else are strictly finite and the energy return on the energy invested to extract fossil fuels is already falling through the floor.

However, it will require us as voters to put a premium on vision and integrity in our politicians and resist the appeal of crude populism like this tribal politicking.
