Rezension zu „Rising Powers, Shrinking Planet “
A brilliant exposition on one of the gigantic problems facing society. Klare is a top expert on the politics of energy and resources. Read him! Paul R. Ehrlich, author of The Dominant Animal/ Klare's superb new book explains, in haunting detail, the trends that will lead us into a series of dangerous traps unless we muster the will to transform the way we use energy. As illuminating as it is unsettling. Bill McKibben, author of Deep Economy/A splendid survey of the new world energy order. A provocative examination of the perilous race to secure energy resources. Carole Nakhle, Research Fellow in Energy at Surrey Energy Economics Centre and author of Out of the Energy Labyrinth/Klare articulates his message with sober honesty and appropriate urgency. If knowledge is power, it is also empowering. Amory B. Lovins, Time Magazine "Hero of the Environment" and author of Capitalism as if the World Matters
