Insightful and Informative, Green Outlook Never So Bright

Earth: The Sequel is an absolute must for anyone interested or concerned about the growing effects of global warming. This book brings to light the current technological advancements in alternative energy, and how very possible it is for us to cut off our dependence on fossil fuels. If the global energy industries were to introduce these new alternative energy solutions into the current grid, we could easily become a much greener planet: Earth. Then there would be no need for a sequel.

Good technical book on alternative energy.

From what I have read so far, the book enumerates the state of researched and applied sources of energy that will not (mostly) increase greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. I would recommend this book to those interested in our options for energy for the future.

How to harness the great forces of capitalism to save the world from catastrophe.

The forecasts are grim and time is running out, but that's not the end of the story. In this book, Fred Krupp, longtime president of Environmental Defense Fund, brings a stirring and hopeful call to arms: We can solve global warming. And in doing so we will build the new industries, jobs, and fortunes of the twenty-first century.

In these pages the reader will encounter the bold innovators and investors who are reinventing energy and the ways we use it. Among them: a frontier impresario who keeps his ice hotel frozen all summer long with the energy of hot springs; a utility engineer who feeds smokestack gases from coal-fired plants to voracious algae, then turns them into fuel; and a tribe of Native Americans, for two thousand years fishermen in the roughest Pacific waters, who are now harvesting the fierce power of the waves themselves.

These entrepreneurs are poised to remake the world's biggest business and save the planet?if America's political leaders give them a fair chance to compete.
