World Energy Crisis
Since 1970 –and even before- there has been a topicon the table of many powerful
men around the world. From government to Kingdoms; and served ateveryone’s
home. Everybody goes affected by the declared energy crisis going on. Fossil fuels
and non-renewable resources are getting over. It is a fact that oil is running out
from the globe and some people are doing everything what is necessary for having
what is left. Business men would fight against anything for having that money.
Moreover, we already reached the peak of oil reserve and now we are counting
back for its ending. Mankind seems to be blind and tied on hands. Is that actually a
crisis for worrying about? Do not we know any other way of generating energy on
earth? There are many, and they have been known from many years until now.
Renewable energy source are real and as efficient as any other fuel so far. Water,
Wind and Sun are the three main sources of renewable and almost infinite energy
and they have been with us since the beginning of times.
However, there is a kind of energy that is not mention too frequent which is radiant
energy. Nikola Tesla, who lived from 1856 to 1943, was fascinated by radiant
energy and its free-energy possibilities.He stated: "This new power for the driving
of the world's machinery will be derived from the energy which operates the
universe, the cosmic energy, whose central source for the earth is the sun and
which is everywhere present in unlimited quantities."

Regardless of Tesla’s attempts, the free energy devices have been suppressed by
the corporate world, because such devices, would allow people to create their own
energy for free, which would ultimately shut down the big energy corporations,
because people will not need to pay anymore for electricity to fill the pockets of the
powerful men.
Now in 2013, when all the necessary equipment is available to make some
changes, is there an energy crisis around the world, or are we suffering froman
ignorance crisis? Why would humans continue destroying what earth offer to them
instead of using wisely its resources? Why would money and power rule over
justice? This is the time for changing our reality and only we will make it possible.
In conclusion, we cannot spend more time waiting for someone else to do what we
have to do. Nikola Tesla was a genius and inventor who during his life shared his
knowledge with mankind. He designed and worked on a unique electric magnifying
tower known as Wardenclyffe on New York, as means to transmit free energy and
communications without wires.Knowing this how is it possible that still today we are
paying and working for these big corporations? They are destroying everything
what is precious and priceless on earth just for a few dollars. They are killing us
and we allow them to do so. We have to stand in our feet and raise our fists, now.

Historical crises
1970s energy crisis - caused by the peaking of oil production in major industrial
nations (Germany, United States, Canada, etc.) and embargoes from other
producers
1973 oil crisis - caused by an OPEC oil export embargo by many of the major Arab
oil-producing states, in response to Western support of Israel during the Yom
Kippur War
1979 oil crisis - caused by the Iranian Revolution
1990 oil price shock - caused by the Gulf War
The 2000–2001 California electricity crisis - Caused by market manipulation by
Enron and failed deregulation; resulted in multiple large-scale power outages
Fuel protests in the United Kingdom in 2000 were caused by a rise in the price of
crude oil combined with already relatively high taxation on road fuel in the UK.
North American natural gas crisis
2004 Argentine energy crisis
North Korea has had energy shortages for many years.
Zimbabwe has experienced a shortage of energy supplies for many years due to
financial mismanagement.
Political riots occurring during the 2007 Burmese anti-government protests were
sparked by rising energy prices.
Kuwait's Al Burqan Oil Field, the world's second largest oil field

2000s energy crisis - Since 2003, a rise in prices caused by continued global
increases in petroleum demand coupled with production stagnation, the falling
value of the U.S. dollar, and a myriad of other secondary causes.
2008 Central Asia energy crisis, caused by abnormally cold temperatures and low
water levels in an area dependent on hydroelectric power. At the same time the
South African President was appeasing fears of a prolonged electricity crisis in
South Africa."Mbeki in pledge on energy crisis".Financial Times.Retrieved 2008-
02-10.
In February 2008 the President of Pakistan announced plans to tackle energy
shortages that were reaching crisis stage, despite having significant hydrocarbon
reserves,.[3] In April 2010, the Pakistani government announced the Pakistan
national energy policy, which extended the official weekend and banned neon
lights in response to a growing electricity shortage.[4]
South African electrical crisis. The South African crisis led to large price rises for
platinum in February 2008 and reduced gold production.[5]
China experienced severe energy shortages towards the end of 2005 and again in
early 2008. During the latter crisis they suffered severe damage to power networks
along with diesel and coal shortages.[6] Supplies of electricity in Guangdong
province, the manufacturing hub of China, are predicted to fall short by an
estimated 10 GW.[7] In 2011 China was forecast to have a second quarter
electrical power deficit of 44.85 - 49.85 GW
