Shifting from an economy dependent on fossil fuels to one sustained by the power of the sun and wind
The age of oil and coal is rapidly coming to an end. Mounting scientific evidence has dispelled all doubt that the byproducts of these fossil fuels are dramatically increasing the rate of climate change and all its devastating consequences. Meanwhile, reserves of these nonrenewable resources are dwindling as quickly as energy demands are increasing.
On this episode of Locus Focus we talk with Janet Larsen about the encouraging growth of sustainable energy technologies utilizing solar, wind, water, and geothermal power, that are coming on line to replace the fossil fuels that are wreaking havoc on our planet.
Janet Larsen is one of the authors of THE GREAT TRANSITION, a new book from the Earth Policy Institute, that provides insight into the wisdom, and inevitability, of shifting from a global economy dependent on fossil fuels to one sustained by the power of the sun and the wind.
