Go to the website. Desertec.org. The plan is not just solar power. It's a massive network of alternative energy plants spread out all across Europe, the Middle East, North Africa. Of course, the coup de grace of the plan is the solar power plant in north Africa, but you guys think it is one huge plant in one location. You're wrong. It is a series of solar plants stretching from Morocco to Saudi Arabia. This creates a sphere of nations that depend on each other, creating a need for diplomacy and cooperation
Oh, this is just too funny....
There is already a need for diplomacy and cooperation, has been for thousands of years. Radical ideology in North Africa and the Middle East cares nothing for diplomacy and cooperation.
Terrorists will DESTROY the energy sites. THEY will see the sites as just a substitute for oil, and right now oil is their only source of revenue and political power.
Smart people keep their power sources close to home and away from their enemies...
