Confronting Collapse
The Crisis of Energy and Money in a Post Peak Oil World
Chelsea Green Publishing, 2009
¿De qué se trata?
Energy crisis expert Michael C. Ruppert offers sleep-disturbing reading that will have you strategizing for workable solutions at first light.
Recommendation
Energy crisis expert Michael C. Ruppert says the sky is falling and makes a strong argument as to why you should heed his warnings. Ruppert marshals compelling facts about the imminent collapse of the oil fields, whose cheap energy has fueled developed society’s way of life for more than a century. He shows how the global financial system’s continual growth drove overconsumption destined to ruin any rational response to the energy crisis. He offers solutions using equal parts “relocalization,” population reduction, resource management and an overhaul of the American governmental system. Noting that the author’s political opinions are controversial, getAbstract recommends this book’s energy crisis information to local and federal government planners, finance professionals, anyone in the energy industry and policy makers looking to construct a societal paradigm for a new, frightening age.
