A pathway to rapid global solar energy deployment? Exploring the solar dominance hypothesis
Natural Capitalism
On its first publication 10 years ago, Natural Capitalism rocked the world of business with its innovative new approach - an approach that fused ecological integrity with business acumen using the radical concept of natural capitalism. This 10th-anniversary edition features a new Introduction by Amory B. Lovins and Paul Hawken which updates the story to include the successes of the last decade. It clearly sets out the path that we must now take t…
Fool's Gold in Alaska
Oil prices have fluctuated randomly for well over a century. Heedless of this fact, oil's promoters are always offering opportunities that could make money?but on the flawed assumption that high prices will prevail. Leading the field of these optimists are Alaskan politicians. Eager to keep funding their state's de facto negative income tax?oil provides 80 percent of the state's unrestricted general revenue?they have used every major rise in oil …
Natural Capitalism
Previous industrial revolutions made people 100 times more productive when low per-capita output was limiting progress in exploiting a seemingly boundless natural world. Today we face a different pattern of scarcity: abundant people and labor-saving machines, but diminishing natural capital. Natural capital refers to the earth’s natural resources and the ecological systems that provide vital life-support services to society and all living things.…
Nature's Services, Human Follies
Energy Unbound
In the form of an instructive fable, two energy experts expound their trademark ''soft path'' energy philosophy, which is based on cost-effective and energy-sufficient technologies, citizen action, and a free-market economy. In the fable, Eunice Anderson, a budget-conscious housewife from Dubuque, Iowa, is appointed U.S. Secretary of Energy and sets out to apply common sense to energy problems
Brittle Power
The authors feel that America's brittle energy system is easily shattered by sabotage, technical failure, or natural disaster; further, the American public needs to understand and correct this vulnerability. Unnecessarily complex and centralized energy systems are at the root of America's energy insecurity, they note, but the proper use of proven cost-effective technologies can make major failures impossible. With practical examples, the authors …
