This book provides an unbiased look at both sides of this debate and addresses what still needs to be done before we can return to an all-renewable energy economy. It looks at why using renewable energy sources is not quite as simple as it seems. It considers the impact of aggressive emission reduction targets that demand reductions before we have the technology in place and the possible risks of such a strategy |
