Energy and pollution solutions exist now: Mark Z. Jacobson

Unlike most people who share their opinions and biases about energy and climate, Mark Z Jacobson has been an independent environmental and energy engineering expert focused on math-based solutions for the last thirty years. His most recent book “100% Clean, Renewable Energy and Storage for Everything” is my go-to daily reference to refute the misinformation widely circulated in favour of nuclear and fossil fuel expansion. There is also a lot of money to save in this transition. Worth the time to listen, read his book, and take recommended steps without delay.

Mark is a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford University and director of its Atmosphere/Energy Program. He is also a co-founder of the non-profit, Solutions Project. His most recent book “100% Clean, Renewable Energy and Storage for Everything” is out and available now. Here is a direct video link.

One key stat: existing renewable power and storage technologies will reduce the world’s annual energy use by about 57%. The graphic below summarizes the solutions project’s engineering blueprints for individual countries and cities.
