Earth's Energy Reserves for Sustainable Energy Economies
The earth has 10 billion years of energy reserves below its crust in the form of nuclear and geothermal power, which has the potential to create a more sustainable energy economy. If the EU starts building nuclear plants, they could also become a net exporter of energy like the US.

Summary
Transitioning to a sustainable energy and food future requires continuous investment in and support of the carbon economy until alternative solutions emerge, and investing in scientific breakthroughs, discoveries, and engineering. Becoming a net exporter of energy is possible for countries involved in the oil business, but building nuclear power plants is key to that success.
