Energy Power Shift: Benefiting from Today's New Technologies
A comprehensive examination of the science, engineering, economics and politics of a renewable energy economy This book makes a convincing case that the U.S. could transition totally away from the current fossil fuel/nuclear based economy to one based totally on renewable energy: waste, biomass, wind, sun and ocean systems. The U.S. has five times more renewable energy than it needs and ten times as much available money from sources where it is already misallocated. In addition, a renewable energy economy would avoid $750 billion per year in waste and unnecessary expense such as the trade deficit for oil ($206 B) and subsidies to oil/gas nuclear corporations. The new and emerging technologies needed -- such as high temperature solid oxide fuel cells, thermal depolymerization processes that make oil from waste, and full sized diesel hybrid/electric vehicles, ocean wave and current conversion, nanotechnolgy based photovoltaics, etc. -- are ready to go now, or very close to it. This book does not advocate the so called "hydrogen economy." The U.S. does not need foreign oil, nuclear power or even an electric grid...at the same time six million new jobs can be created, environmental problems will be addressed and the whole world will be safer..

From the supplier: The death row memoirs of Mumia Abu-Jamal are controversial because he was a black activist radio journalist who angered the local police and was then convicted of killing a police officer. The officer's wife is attempting to prevent the publication of the book with support from the Fraternal Order of Police using the Son of Sam laws. These laws prevent criminals from profiting from their crimes through writing and are being contested in the US Supreme Court as censorship and a violation of First Amendment rights. Abu-Jamal is appealing, charging innocence with police-suppressed evidence. Citation DetailsTitle: Abu-Jamal and Son of Sam.
