Agree. From the land of Brundtland and the oxymoron "sustainable" development, renewables would be a good idea.

I mean, isn't it obvious that the most ethical investment for this vast sum today would be the many --quite promising-- inventions for renewable energies? To get started, these new technologies need big advance funding, until they are mature enough for cheap mass production. What would be more suitable for this branch than state oil funds? But it seems that the Norwegian gov't prefers to continue cashing in on oil as long as possible -- this would stop if the alternatives become viable. How _ethical_ is this decision?
