Michael E. Mann, author of Our Fragile Moment: How Lessons from the Earth's Past Can Help Us Survive the Climate Crisis
"For a fluent and fast-paced explanation of the clean energy future that’s within our grasp, look no further. Richard Black presents the main keys in a simple and accessible language and analyses the opportunities of an energy system transformation that is already unstoppable." David Shukman, former BBC Science Editor and Visiting Professor in Practice, Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment, London School of Economics

Richard Black presents the main keys in a simple and accessible language and analyses the opportunities of an energy system transformation that is already unstoppable."
