Book Reviews of Earth: The Sequel: The Race to Reinvent Energy and Stop Global Warming

Book Review: An excellent overview
Summary: 4 Stars

Personally I found this book inspirational. It offers an enthusiastic overview of how people are trying to create answers to our energy requirements, ones that can wean us off oil. It is an excellent introduction to where research and start ups are leading us and very useful for anyone interested in the topic.

It doesn't purport to have all the answers but does show that there is hope if we can open our minds to new solutions. Now is a time for great exploration, we have to try many things and here we see some of the people who are helping to shape our future world.
