The Great Transition Summary

The Great Transition: Shifting from Fossil Fuels to Solar and Wind Energy by Lester R. Brown (Earth Policy Institute)

As oil insecurity deepens, the extraction risks of fossil fuels rise and concerns about climate instability cast a shadow over the future of coal, a new world energy economy is emerging. The old economy, fuelled by oil, natural gas and coal is being replaced with one powered by wind, solar and geothermal energy.
