Before the Lights Go Out

Conquering the Energy Crisis Before It Conquers Us

Maggie Koerth-Baker

This book explores America's energy problem and the need for change in the way we use fossil fuels. The author lays out solutions to cutting our energy budget and investing in alternative energy sources to build a sustainable future. The book delves into buzzwords like clean coal and carbon sequestration and how they will soon be part of our daily lives. The author argues that we need to embrace new ways of getting energy, using it efficiently, and doing more with less instead of reverting to the past.
