This groundbreaking book asks, and answers, key questions about energy use and carbon reductions including, is it realistic to eliminate carbon emissions? Can renewables (e.g. solar and wind) ever take over from fossil fuels in supplying all the energy we need? How long does it take for a given source of energy (e.g. wind, solar, nuclear) to produce and return the energy used in its manufacture? How has cheap natural gas from fracking changed the global energy situation? This book is a must read for all those interested in global warming, carbon reductions and energy use. It should have priority on the reading lists of policy makers, scientists, engineers, politicians, journalists, school teachers, and the general public. If you can only buy one book this year on global warming and energy use, buy this one! Sir Colin Humphreys, CBE, FRS, FREng, University of Cambridge
