How then, do we move backwards? How does a society, with most of the people having no clue of future events, move from being dependent on a vast and intertwined network of goods and services produced by the indigenous people of whereever, to a local resource and renewable energy based society, and do so in the timeframe available (20-30 years using the most liberal extimates, 10-20 with resonable estimates, 5-10 with worst case scenarios), all the while prices on everything increasing, world politics getting more militaristic, governments continuously reducing civil liberties, shortages of goods on the market and weather patterns resembling bad Hollywood movies?

7 years ? Cold fuzion will come even faster. I heard that the prez just made a technology transfer deal with the Ferengi just for the price of 1 small continent . It will happen in just 6 years if he wins the election.

These researchers are way out on a limb here, a place they seem to be in a habit of going to.  Even if their technology works they would still face the problems of hydrogen storage (very challenging, other pie-eyed announcements not withstanding) and distribution (extremely expensive).  Since they don't even allude to these obvious, major problems, I don't trust these guys one bit.
