About the Book

"Our civilization's ever-increasing hunger for energy-and its fixation on fossil fuels to provide that energy-is in the process of imploding on itself as our population grows and its demographics change. Yet we live in a world of tough realities, where an elegant solution simply does not exist." 2GreenEnergy founder Craig Shields provides a broad survey of the subject, presenting 25 interviews with the widest possible variety of subject matter specialists-each chosen to provide the reader with an accessible and fair-minded treatment of a particular issue. The technology, the economics, and the politics of renewables form a fantastically complicated calculus that needs to be thoroughly understood if we are to have relevant, informed discussions on this subject-the most important challenge in the history of mankind-the migration to clean and sustainable energy sources.
About the Author: Craig Shields's background is a blend of business consulting and advocacy for clean technology. Since 1983, Craig has owned and managed a marketing agency with a staff at one point as large as 210 professionals, generating demand for Fortune-sized and high-growth clients in IT, automotive, and industrial capital equipment. Headline client relationships have included Hewlett-Packard, Sony, Porsche Motor Cars, 3M, FedEx, General Motors, Western Digital, ITT, IBM, Litton, 3Com, Xerox, Penske, AT&T, National Semiconductor, Philips Electronics, Nortel Networks, Unisys, CSC, Pacific Telesis, Fujistu, and Oracle. Craig's position as editor of 2GreenEnergy and Clean Energy Press enables him to use these business skills to forward concepts that are central to our survival as a species: the cessation of destructive practices associated with the production and consumption of energy. Since its inception, the website www.2GreenEnergy has enabled people all around the globe to come together and share important ideas concerning renewable energy, electric transportation, and sustainability more generally.
