Energy: The Source of Prosperity

Energy. The Source of Prosperity, describes why fossil fuels have supplied the energy that’s created modern prosperity, where vast numbers of people live long, productive lives. It examines the Green New Deal and whether its promises are genuine or a trap. For example, is so-called clean energy able to replace fossil fuels? And, will the Green New Deal usher in a debilitating era of Socialism? Parts One and Two establish basic concepts including why socialism eventually leads to fascism and why climate change is not an existential threat. Part Three is a collection of articles previously published by the author examining a host of issues related to renewables, fossil fuels, and nuclear power. Each of these articles is short and easy to read. All have been fact-checked. The book is a must read for students who have been targeted by the left. Together, we all have an interest in the outcome of this debate because it is our collective future that’s at stake.Energy. The Source of Prosperity, provides the engineering and science that exposes the green new deal for what it is, a return to the middle ages and a bad deal for Americans and other freedom loving people. Finally, a word about the cover: The Statue of Liberty lights the way to freedom. Behind her, from the past, barely discernible, is Prometheus, with arm outstretched and torch in hand, reaching for the sun to light his torch so that he may give fire to humans. Fire, emblematic of the energy that has brought prosperity to mankind.These two symbols, one of freedom and the other of energy, symbolize what is at stake in the debate over climate change.
