"What is astonishing is that all the 'eminent scientists' think that future

generations will be less able to solve problems than our generations.  We
are much better at safely containing nuclear waste now than we were in the

1950's so why do all the scientists think that we will not continue to
improve  our knowledge and capabilities?"

Some decades ago ( approximately coeval with the establishment of the EPA )
Planet of the Apes  became the official future.  Thus all environmental,
economic and energy planning is required to assume that future generations
will be incapable of protecting themselves against the legacy we leave
behind.  No credit is ever given for intellectual, scientific or
technological development.
