What price do we pay for the dream of “green” energy? Is it true that solar and wind power can replace fossil fuels? And what will happen if the world hastily abandons oil, gas and coal?

In his new book, Thomas Ellington debunks popular myths about renewable energy and shows that abandoning hydrocarbons could lead to economic and social disasters. Based on compelling data and real-life examples, the author proves that oil, gas and coal not only provide billions of people with energy, but are also the foundation of global prosperity.

This book makes you look at modern energy from a different angle. Why are fossil fuels still indispensable? How can we ensure a balance between ecology and development? Ellington invites the reader to think and offers answers that can change your understanding of the future of the planet.
