In this book the author and engineer, Cleantech authority, venture capitalist, pragmatic entrepreneur and philosopher, doesn't provide a 3 easy steps approach to fixing our dependence on fossil fuels. But he does show it's possible to do without them. By giving an in depth look at 10 technologies that together can bring a clean future, free of fossil fuels, he provides education and hope. This is a clarion call, a directive that we act quickly and collectively (governments, corporations and individuals) to provide future generations the opportunity to live in a sustainable world. Unique in being accessible to the general public, his message is not just important, but understandable and entertaining. His personal views and anecdotes are combined with a hard-headed engineering and business perspective. Beautiful photographs bring the text to life. It is this generation's job to save the world we know for the next. This book shows us how.
