The New York Times bestselling author of The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels draws on the latest data and new insights to challenge everything you thought you knew about the future of energy



For over a decade, philosopher and energy expert Alex Epstein has predicted that any negative impacts of fossil fuel use on our climate will be outweighed by the unique benefits of fossil fuels to human flourishing--including their unrivaled ability to provide low-cost, reliable energy to billions of people around the world, especially the world's poorest people.

 

And contrary to what we hear from media "experts" about today's "renewable revolution" and "climate emergency," reality has proven Epstein right:

 

  •  Fact: Fossil fuels are still the dominant source of energy around the world, and growing fast—while much-hyped renewables are causing skyrocketing electricity prices and increased blackouts.

  •  Fact: Fossil-fueled development has brought global poverty to an all-time low.

  •  Fact: While fossil fuels have contributed to the 1 degree of warming in the last 170 years, climate-related deaths are at all-time lows thanks to fossil-fueled development.

 

What does the future hold? In Fossil Future, Epstein, applying his distinctive "human flourishing framework" to the latest evidence, comes to the shocking conclusion that the benefits of fossil fuels will continue to far outweigh their side effects—including climate impacts—for generations to come. The path to global human flourishing, Epstein argues, is a combination of using more fossil fuels, getting better at "climate mastery," and establishing "energy freedom" policies that allow nuclear and other truly promising alternatives to reach their full long-term potential.

 

Today's pervasive claims of imminent climate catastrophe and imminent renewable energy dominance, Epstein shows, are based on what he calls the "anti-impact framework"—a set of faulty methods, false assumptions, and anti-human values that have caused the media's designated experts to make wildly wrong predictions about fossil fuels, climate, and renewables for the last fifty years. Deeply researched and wide-ranging, this book will cause you to rethink everything you thought you knew about the future of our energy use, our environment, and our climate.

One needs to understand that we don't need anymore "human flourishing" as such. The world is overpopulated as it is. We are choking the entire planet.

You tell black and brown folks that they can't have babies.

Back in the 80's the blacks thought a condom was white man's ploy to minimise their numbers so they wouldn't have majority rule. I know...it's like flogging a dead horse!

George Soros' web of influence is documented and exposed.



No one else in modern politics has anywhere near the power and influence of George Soros, both domestically and internationally. Backed by the tens of billions of dollars he's accumulated throughout his career, Soros has his hand in influencing the media, activist groups, colleges, presidential elections, global elections, local U.S. politics, and much more. Soros has earned himself a reputation as a "boogeyman" character on the right, and nowhere else will you read such an extensive documentation of his influence as in this book.

Is it an older book Oliver?

Yeah from 1967 back in the hippie days. Here's a quick summary -



Agent of Chaos posits a naive revolutionary group sometime in the distant future; they fight the Hegemony to bring democracy to the solar system. But the rebels and rulers contend with a third force, the unpredictable Brotherhood of Assassins—aka the Agents of Chaos. Fearless, cultish followers of the philosopher Gregor Markowitz, the Agents are guided by his Theory of Social Entropy. "Every Social Conflict," according to Markowitz, "is the arena for three mutually antagonistic forces": the Establishment, the anti-Establishment, and Chaos—the pervasive tendency for everything to screw up.







After reading Agent Of Chaos in 1973 Rex Weiner was inspired to create the group Agents of Pie-Kill which recruited agents to throw pies in the faces of famous people such as Gordon Liddy, Daniel Moynihan, William Shatner, David Frost and others. It became so big Time magazine called it "the biggest fad since streaking." - https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2014/04/01/heres-pie-in-your-eye/">https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/201 ... -your-eye/">https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2014/04/01/heres-pie-in-your-eye/





I also find it interesting that The Joker refers to himself as "An agent of chaos" but I don't know if the book had anything to do with it.
