Out of the energy labyrinth

Uniting energy and the environment to avert catastrophe
The authors argue that energy can become a tool for environmental protection and energy and environment are not in conflict with each other. By pooling energy production and environmental protection, energy can be part of a solution rather than the problem. This book is firmly grounded in reality and makes specific proposals: a radical rethinking on energy investment strategies; massive incentives to develop alternative fuel technologies; a ground-breaking public awareness strategy to redirect consumers and policy-makers to embrace fundamental (though essentially painless) change in consumption patterns. The solutions are short term because the energy challenges immediately ahead, if not handled right, could undermine all longer term attempts to limit climate change.
