The clues to that trick are in the energy flow charts of a solar-based, steady state society.

Despite the somewhat surprising openness of your audience this time, there's still a whole lot of incomprehension out there. On RealClimate, which most folks here probably know is the place for climate science from climate scientists, the discussion often strays to energy issues, peak fossils, etc. I've tried to introduce some bare basics about the difficulty (impossibility?) of maintaining or improving the current economy as fossils decline, and some of the knowledgeable (about climate) regulars there truly do not get it, even after repeated tries. They think oil bad, sun and wind good, so let's have some more of the good, without a thought for interdependence, feedback, sources of capital, cost of using one form of energy to make
