An astounding cultural shift took place 150 years ago. Good
science, hard work, and innovation propelled humanity into a world
of convenience, comfort, and health that kings of old could never
have imagined. It also cast a long shadow. Today, we stand at a
cross-road. Will we continue to limit ourselves to 19th century
fossil fuel inefficiencies and pollution, thereby denying future
generations the affluence we enjoy? Or will we gather the courage
to move into a cleaner, safer more abundant solar powered world?
Using historical anecdotes as well as modern story-telling and
basic science, this book describes how humans are changing the
chemistry of our air and oceans. The great life-giving cycles that
maintain a livable environment are being altered, causing wide
range of consequences. Serious as the situation is, it is also an
opportunity. Very real solutions, both technological and economic
are addressed. There is a promising future that awaits if we, as a
species, are willing to take on the challenges of growth and
change.
