The Hydrogen Economy by Jeremy Rifkin
The road to global security, writes Jeremy Rifkin, lies in lessening our dependence on Middle East oil and making sure that all people on Earth have access to the energy they need to sustain life. Weaning the world off oil and turning it toward hydrogen is a promissory note for a safer world. Rifkin's international bestseller The Hydrogen Economy presents the clearest, most comprehensive case for moving ourselves away from the destructive and waning years of the oil era toward a new kind of energy regime. Hydrogen-one of the most abundant substances in the universe-holds the key, Rifkin argues, to a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable world.Jeremy Rifkin is the founder and president of the Foundation on Economic Trends, as well as the author of eighteen best-selling books, including The Hydrogen Economy and The End of Work. Face the Nation, The Lehrer News Hour, 20/20, Larry King Live, Today, and Good Morning America have all included him as a guest.
