＜p＞＜strong＞A radical new history of energy and humanity's insatiable need for resources that will change the way we talk about climate change＜/strong＞＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞'A necessary, eye-opening and frequently gobsmacking book... Removing fossil fuels from the energy mix will require something akin to an amputation. The vivid sense of the scale and complexity of the world’s material and energetic flows provided by this book makes clear what a difficult, and possibly bloody, operation that will have to be'＜/em＞ - ＜em＞The Economist＜/em＞＜/p＞＜p＞It has become habitual to think of our relationship with energy as one of transition: with wood superseded by coal, coal by oil, oil by nuclear and then at some future point all replaced by green sources. Jean-Baptiste Fressoz’s devastating but unnervingly entertaining book shows what an extraordinary delusion this is. Far from the industrial era passing through a series of transformations, each new phase has in practice remained almost wholly entangled with the previous one. Indeed the very idea of transition turns out to be untrue.＜/p＞＜p＞The author shares the same acute anxiety about the need for a green transition as the rest of us, but shows how, disastrously, our industrial history has in fact been based on symbiosis, with each major energy source feeding off the others. Using a fascinating array of examples, Fressoz describes how we have gorged on ＜em＞all＜/em＞ forms of energy ? with whole forests needed to prop up coal mines, coal remaining central to the creation of innumerable new products and oil still central to our lives. The world now burns more wood and coal than ever before.＜/p＞＜p＞This book reveals an uncomfortable truth: ‘transition’ was originally itself promoted by energy companies, not as a genuine plan, but as a means ＜em＞to put off＜/em＞ any meaningful change. ＜em＞More and More and More＜/em＞ forces its readers to understand the modern world in all its voracious reality, and the true nature of the challenges heading our way.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
