Few weeks back Mr. George Bush let out a comment that it is due to the heavy demand from China and India that the oil price has increased so much. I do not know about China but the Indian Government promptly objected to this remark but did not take the objection to a higher official level. I think the remark was more pointed towards China than India but we can not just ignore an accusing comment from a country which literally runs the globe. It does not mean you antagonise US - no - even f you want to - you just can't afford it. It is however essential to find out ways to move from oil and the next source of energy that comes to my mind is solar - except some Arab countries no country seems to take this free energy seriously - it is time that all the governments pooled together their resources to make this energy cost-effective. Next best source of energy is nuclear energy. But here also we can not go nuclear without the help of the US. Just because we went nuclear in the weapons side does not mean that we are self sufficient in the energy side of it. We have the minds - we need good politicians to make this fully happen.
