A Smart Energy Policy by James M Griffin

Presents an explanation of issues and proposals for a truly sustainable energy policy. This book points out that various energy policies are fatally flawed and that government policies should focus on 'getting the prices right' so that the prices of fossil fuels reflect their true costs to society - including greenhouse gas and security costs.

“James Griffin’s A Smart Energy Policy is timely addition to the energy policy debateThe book possesses important insights with crisp recommendations for how to successfully manage our future energy needs and key environmental problems.”—William Nordhaus, Sterling Professor of Economics, Yale University

-- William Nordhaus

“Written for the non-economist but interested citizen, this book is one of the very best contributions in the exposition of the necessary tradeoffs that we as a country face in dealing with our energy future.”--The Energy Journal
