Been spending too much time in the future recently Very critical about (much) security foresight (been fried before) I think the securitistas have usually ended up on the ‘wrong’ side of
Global energy landscape being dramatically reshaped – for the better Europe’s ‘security of supply’ hasn’t looked this bright since decades Key policy levers are R&D, markets and diversification (both in energy
We need a balanced (whole-of-government/society) policy discussion
(Adaptive!!!) policy choices are still required
