Energy policy was never meant to favour sustainability or energy security – for decades, it has been shaped by corporate interests while hampering renewable alternatives. Now we suffer the consequences. Written by a leading energy expert, Energy Revolutions reveals the urgent need to radically increase state intervention, including public ownership, and deploy energy democracy for the public interest. It explores examples of energy democracy around the world, showing us how to fight back against fossil fuel interests, avoid climate catastrophe and the threat of nuclear technological dependency; transforming energy into a cheap, decentralised renewable good for all.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 140mmAuthor: David TokeGenre: Business & FinanceTopic: Law & Politics, Technology & Engineering, Science Nature & MathRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
