The only problem, and it is major, is that Europe lacks followers of its lead. However, for years, EU policy on energy – responsible for around two-thirds of all greenhouse gases – has seemed remarkably narrow. It has focused almost exclusively on networks and, among networks, almost exclusively on electricity and gas. In his new book, 'The Rough Guide to the Energy Crisis', David Buchan outlines the ways forward.]]> http://climateanswers.info/2010/10/energy-the-big-picture/feed/ 0 http://climateanswers.info/2010/01/the-economical-environmentalist-by-prashant-vaze/ http://climateanswers.info/2010/01/the-economical-environmentalist-by-prashant-vaze/#comments Fri, 08 Jan 2010 17:12:42 +0000 Prashant Vaze http://climateanswers.info/?p=2949 This is an irreverent but rigorous, fact-filled reference guide to low-cost, low-carbon living for everyone in tough times.]]> http://climateanswers.info/2010/01/the-economical-environmentalist-by-prashant-vaze/feed/ 0 http://climateanswers.info/2010/01/sustainable-energy-without-to-hot-air-by-david-mackay/ http://climateanswers.info/2010/01/sustainable-energy-without-to-hot-air-by-david-mackay/#comments Fri, 08 Jan 2010 14:13:13 +0000 Stephen Tindale http://climateanswers.info/?p=2931 Anyone who cares about the survival of human civilisation should read this book.

It’s extremely well written and readable, but, because it is an illustration of the effects that different temperature increases will have, it is not exactly cheerful. Yet, anyone interested in climate change - or indeed human survival - should read it.]]> http://climateanswers.info/2010/01/six-degrees-our-future-on-a-hotter-planet-by-mark-lynas/feed/ 0 http://climateanswers.info/2009/12/christmas-appeal-the-economical-environmentalist/ http://climateanswers.info/2009/12/christmas-appeal-the-economical-environmentalist/#comments Thu, 17 Dec 2009 13:12:13 +0000 Prashant Vaze http://climateanswers.info/?p=2674 While world leaders are in Copenhagen grappling with global greenhouse gas emissions, most of us have more prosaic issues to sort out this week - what to get friends and family for Christmas, how to do something for charity and, perhaps stirred by Copenhagen, how to do something to help reduce global emissions.]]> http://climateanswers.info/2009/12/christmas-appeal-the-economical-environmentalist/feed/ 0
