It makes no difference whether global warming is or is not a “human-caused” condition, because it is only human-caused action that will mediate its effects. This book shows why wind and solar alone are not enough. To get a handle on this, we need a backup plan, that is, an energy miracle.
This is the book that gives concerned folks an understanding of exactly how to tackle global warming. At the same time, it gives students and scientists the tools to jump-start the search for energy miracles. The politicians and administrators who need a low-cost solution that comes to grips with the coming debacle will be happy to know that this book provides that as well. In this century, over one billion people living in low-lying coastal areas will be inundated by rising seas. It’s time to get moving. Read this book and then pass it on to a friend or an associate.
