Declining oil supplies and the environmental impact of coal dictate a switch to renewable energy sources for a sustainable future. A renewable energy leader two decades "ago," the U.S. now lags behind Germany and Japan. Writing for a popular "audience," Morris proposes that our remaining non-renewable resources be used to develop a long-term supply of renewable energy. He pays special attention to the experience of "Europe," asking whether a mix of renewables is "feasible," its "cost," its "drawbacks," and its timeframe.
