Description

Few people doubt the threat of climate change and the urgent need to conquer fossil fuel addiction. But can renewable sources of energy ever be sufficient to provide modern societies with a decent quality of life' This book is clear they can, covering all the latest technologies and a road map to powering the world, not just sustainably, but democratically. Danny Chivers is an environmental researcher advising NGOs on their carbon footprint. He is an activist in fossil fuel divestment campaigns working with a number of groups including 350.org. He is the author of The No-Nonsense Guide to Climate Change, and a performance poet. Chapters address Wind, Hydro, Geothermal and Ambient heat, Wave and Tidal, Fuel Crops, Energy from "waste" and Horizon technologies.
