In many publications on energy, environment and climate, 2050 is seen as a target year. By then, the energy supply should (virtually) no longer contribute to CO2 emissions; while the 9 billion inhabitants of this earth expected by then should have reached an acceptable level of prosperity. Dreams, or Reality? Certainly: Challenges, opportunities for our next generations. Who shall say......
