Joe Shuster's Beyond Fossil Fools opened my eyes. It is a political, economic, and financial epiphany. The book compellingly explains why the United States must move to clean, renewable, and affordable energy in the next 30 years. The book also illustrates how it is possible to reach the goal. The message is clear and convincing. Every policy maker, corporate executive, and thoughtful citizen must read this book and rally round the cause."

Why Should You Read This Book?
This book will scare you, astound you, anger you and if author Joe Shuster has his way, motivate you to action. The most important issue of our time is energy, and this book in a clear quantified presentation defines the problem, and then shows the way to a solution.
This book is a rallying cry, a call to action, a declaration of energy independence.
The world must abandon fossil foolishness if we are to create and enjoy prosperity and a cleaner environment. Clean, renewable, efficient, eternal energy is available, completely affordable, and attainable within 30 years.
Conservation while always a good thing can only buy some time---likely no more than 10 years. Conservation is not a solution. It is time to stop fooling ourselves with anemic band- aid solutions. The world has a colossal problem that requires a colossal world-size solution.
Shuster describes how the fundamental problems of fossil foolishness — the rapid depletion of scarce resources and the mounting pollution from burning fossil fuels — are made worse by growing populations and economies and by the growing demand for energy to fuel agriculture, industry, and energy intensive lifestyles.
Shuster illustrates how to solve these problems by embracing nuclear energy, by complementing it with wind, solar energy and other renewable sources, and at the same time vigorously promoting hybrid plug-in and all-electric vehicles fueled in part by ethanol and biodiesel fuels.
How do we get there? Shuster provides a 30-year roadmap — a transitional “bridge” — complete with costs (affordable!), timetables (attainable), and quantified figures (verifiable).
We can prevent the train wreck of dependence on fossil fuels. This book is about hope, about you, your choices and your future. It is most particularly about your children’s future!
Energy independence by 2040. We can do it. We can afford it! We can’t afford not to. |
