No one before has tied together the concepts of economic growth and greenhouse gas reductions with such concrete examples. No one has previously told the real stories of the people who are right now on the front lines of the energy revolution. The co-authors, one a U.S. Congressman who is the primary sponsor of the New Apollo Energy Act, and the other the founder of the Apollo Alliance, have joined their experience, expertise, and passion for a clean energy future to lay out the path to stop global warming and gain energy independence.Energy policyUnited StatesRenewable energy sourcesUnited StatesGlobal warmingEnergy policyRenewable energy sourcesGlobal warming.333.790973REF000000bisacshInslee Jay1801695Hendricks Bracken1801696MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910956259703321Apollo's fire4347068UNINA
