Examines the history behind industrialized nations' dependence on natural resources, particularly fossil fuels, as well as developing nations' increasing consumption of these resources.
As a young child, Thomas Mark Anthony had all the God-given privileges of a new life, born in a Christian free country with God-fearing and loving parents who were blessed with good jobs! You could smell opportunity and happiness blossoming built on a solid foundation that would always be there to stand upon, even when life throws you a curve ball! Little did Tommy know that the seismic events of his life would start as a tremor and quickly uproot, shatter, and challenge all he was taught and had known to be true. When adversity strikes, be one young or old, you always have a God-given choice to run to God or from him. In this instance, Tom chose to run from God at an early age, but what would God do with his choices? Would he abandon Tom or do all he could to save him? Either way, Thomas Mark Anthony was about to confront his worst fears, most profound joys, deepest thoughts, and his greatest challenges mentally, emotionally, physically, and, above all, spiritually!

This book examines the history, politics, and economics of alternative energy. Since the energy crisis of the 1970s, governments around the world have subsidized and otherwise incentivized alternative forms of energy to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. This search has taken on added urgency in the twenty-first century, as the specter of climate change has engendered ambitious state-level renewable portfolio standards, enhanced federal incentives, and inspired “100% renewable” electrical generation targets in such states as Vermont and Hawaii. To save the planet from destruction, wind, solar, and other renewable energy alternatives must replace fossil fuels. But how did we get here and ...
