Title: Green & gold
Description: "Ireland can become a world leader in clean energy as conventional energy sources run out but there's little agreement on how. John Travers identifies the challenge and opportunity from an Irish perspective. He reveals the role energy plays in our economy and lifestyles, our consequent thirst for imported oil, and how an energy crisis that could ravage the nation may be avoided. Ultimately, he assesses in clear terms practical energy alternatives to meet all our needs, achieve energy independence, and provide an opportunity for Ireland to be a world leader and global beacon of clean energy. This book leaves one with a sense of hope in the face of this major challenge and is a wake-up call showing how Ireland can shape a new destiny of energy freedom."--Publisher's description.
