Summary In this book, he informs his readers about how energy has been the basis and the driving force of every thriving civilization. He mentions the energies our civilization has been built on and what will be the new energies that will replace these. He provides deep and unprecedented insight about coal, electricity and natural gas, and how climate change has been majorly responsible for the depleting sources of energy. He encourages the readers to use renewable energy and electric cars. | ||
