scholastic_squid's review against another edition
4.0
It is a lot to grasp but the concept is great and well researched. I recommend anyone interested in the energy sector to read (and reread) this book. It is a plausible method for our future but will take cooperation from all sides, including individuals, to make it happen. I hope to see at least half of the suggested options in my lifetime so that I can, and my offspring can, enjoy the earth and its' bounties.
- Abandoning fossil fuels
- Transportation sector reinvented
- Buildings & high efficiency
- Industry transformation
- Different futures:
1. Maintain: Business-as-usual
2. Migrate: Conventional carbon-free approach
3. Renew: Tapping into Nature
4. Transform: Seismic Shift in Scale
5. How do we get there?
- Looking back from 2050
Depicted from the future, it sounds almost like the Jetson's but you can see this possible future in sight and it is exciting. A multitude of choices for transportation, working more from home, clean air, solar panels on every building, selling power back to the grid, etc..
