Solar Energy

How will we make energy when the Sun eventually dies?

Obviously, we need to deplete our nuclear/fossil fuel deposits asap, so we can have more fun when the sun dies.

Before the sun dies, it will grow large enough to engulf the Earth.  This will make solar energy a highly efficient form of energy.  Our proximity to the sun, or more specifically, our location inside it, will likely cause most fossil fuels to combust, thus making it an unreliable form of energy.  Overall though, to get the most out of whatever energy source we do have, I would suggest relocation to a planet further from the sun at least, and hopefully to a solar system whose star isn't dying.  All donations for said cause can be sent to Al Gore's Apocalypse Fund.

Or use technology to prevent the sun from engulfing the Earth.  I'm sure that with billions of years of new technological developments, we'll find a way to stop the expansion of the sun into a red giant once the time comes..

Maybe if we haven't all killed each other by then...

This.

If we don't grow the fuck up as a species, we're going to annihilate ourselves long before we run out of fossil fuels.

lol

Most of the species doesn't want to destroy itself.  It's just the bilderberger types that do.



But engouh of this

Is there a mathematical term for the "equals sign." Like a single latin word...
