The oil prices increase rapidly, and bring to the becoming rich of solitary people and oil companies. In addition, part of the oil money is strengthening the fundamentalist Islam and the Islamic terror.
But the expensive price inspires energy saving, and the search for alternative clean energy, that will stop the greenhouse effect, which can bring to the dangerous warming of Earth, as a result of the accumulation of fuel's gaseous exhaust in the atmosphere.
The paradox is that as a result from it, actually the few rich, who exploit with exaggerated prices the mass of consumers, are 'right', because the exaggerated prices create an incentive for saving and change.
Patrick Ziskind, author of the bestseller 'Perfume', describes a similar idea that comes from the hallucinating brain of a French noble from the 18 century: This noble concocted an economic method of inversed progressive tax, by which the poor will pay more taxes than the rich, in order to create for the poor greater incentive to work.
The Paradox of energy crisis is perceived by some as the natural existential condition of Mankind.
It is possible, then, to understand the weight of political difficulties that exist among the decision makers in the state of Israel, one of the world's leading states in the area of Alternative Energy, as they come to decide if to invest in the development of alternative energy, mainly in the field of Solar Energy by photovoltaic cells.
Who will, perhaps, enjoy it primarily will be hostile Arab states, which have large deserts and abundance of sun energy. If today they export oil, in future they will export electricity that was produced by means solar power stations, in an amount much larger.
But the potential strengthening of Arab states as a result from development of alternative energies is irrelevant.
As a result from accumulative development of different energy sources, the world is very close nowadays to the era of global abundance of clean energy.
Clean Energy in high quality, available and inexpensive, is not anymore a technical matter, but rather political only.
Every state is able already to produce all the energy that it needs by itself from alternative sources.
The sun is the main source, but there are additional, complimentary sources, like wind energy, bio energy, atomic energy, hydrogen energy and more.
Developed states work hard at this direction by means of subsidies.
It is possible, in the foreseeable future, that a world net of electricity lines, similar to the Internet, will be able to provide electricity, mainly through solar power stations, from places where the sun is rising to places where there is darkness, 24 hours a day, without the expensive need to store electricity.
The era of energy abundance will strengthen the importance of the human factor.
In the current condition of expensive energy, energy poor states, like Israel, must realize fully the human factor in order to survive.
It seems that the importance of human resources will decline with free energy.
But in the era of more or less equality between all states with respect to the supply of energy, the central question will be how to make the most intelligent use of all this free energy.
The focus of environmentalists will have to pass from the warming of Earth, to the question of uncontrolled land uses.
The intensified use of electrified cars is liable to bring to the excessive expansion of roads network, that is already excessive nowadays, and consume insufferable monstrous amount of green land.
Personal Solar Energy, which will be technologically inexpensive, will bring to the cancellation of the need to join the electricity network, and unplanned settlements will appear everywhere.
Israel must provide solutions to mankind in these subjects, because the Holy Land is situated in the eye of the storm of the international thirst for oil and holiness.
But the paradoxes might accumulate, contrary to the desirable course of events, and the absurdity principle might motivate the political leaders in Israel.
What is required is political rethinking on immediate legislation and incentives, in order to bring significant change.
The captains of Israel must adopt new policy in two fields that are attached to each other:
A. The state must invest more in alternative energy.
B. The state must increase the supervision of illegal building construction, and disable any anarchism by planning and inspection.
