This book gives an overview of today's energy problem in the context of a rising world population, climate change and the shortage of resources. It figures out systemic connections between energy, water and the carbon cycle of todays economy and sketches a “natural” future energy scenario that is sustainable. Due to the complexity of the matter, this short book cannot be a complete compendium. The proposed solutions and no-goes are meant as a stimulus for further discussion.
