A Solar Manifesto

by Hermann Scheer - £26.99  James & James (2001)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781902916514 | ISBN 10: 1902916514

In this fully updated edition of A Solar Manifesto Herman Scheer attacks the lack of political will to find answers to threats to the global environment outside a conventional frame of reference. Climate change, pollution, deforestation, destruction of the ozone layer, poverty and the population explosion are all problems created or exacerbated by the use of conventional energy. Seven years after the first edition of this book, answers are now more urgently required than ever, as current policies serve merely to alleviate the escalating symptoms rather than attempting a cure for what could become a terminal affliction. Scheer shows that this crisis may yet be reversed - but it can only be made to happen through a fundamental change in political and economic strategies, paving the way towarda a global solar energy economy sustained by new social principles. He champions the replacement of fossil and nuclear fuels with solare energy, as a real solution to the threat to the environment and associated social consequences. Scheer constructs a radical yet innovative poltical and economic model and argues the case with passion and conviction. Thought provoking and profoundly challenging, this book will be an inspiration to anyone concerned with energy and the global environment.
