This is an uplifting and exciting read, one that lays out the clean energy transition in such a hopeful way. The population doesn't need convincing that solar is cleaner, cheaper and more reliable. Imagine how much cool stuff we can do with an abundance of clean renewable energy!.
In the past two years, with surprisingly little notice, renewable energy has suddenly become the obvious, mainstream, cost-efficient choice around the world, @billmckibben writes.
