2023

Purchase on Amazon

Synopsis

The United States has the world’s largest reserves of fossil fuels, yet Americans are being asked to give up cheap energy for what’s referred to as clean energy.

A dialogue is needed to establish whether such a transition is necessary and whether the benefits of clean energy justify abandoning fossil fuels.

Can clean energy deliver on its promise? Are the critical minerals needed for the clean energy transition available? Who benefits by supplying these minerals?

Does fear of climate change require renouncing fossil fuels, or is the fear unjustified?

Should Americans be free to buy the type of car they prefer?

Where does nuclear power fit into the discussion?

And what about the billions of poor people in Africa and elsewhere who lack enough electricity to meet rudimentary needs for cooking and light?

These are the important questions addressed in Clean Energy Crisis. It provides the facts for this badly needed discussion.
