Keep Your Damn Oil! describes in detail our relationship with OPEC and how precarious our energy supply truly is. Then it goes on to describe a plan that could eliminate our OPEC imports by 2020 through electric cars, natural gas vehicles, and increased efficiency. The question is then asked "What will happen to our environment when we increase our emission of CO2 through coal power generation to energize our electric vehicles?" And in great detail, greenhouse gases are explained along with accurate analysis of electrical power generation from coal, natural gas, nuclear, wind, solar, biomass, hydro, and geothermal. The practical applications of each are explained including geography, economics, and politics. Lastly, a summary of things that each individual can really do to reduce our oil consumption and reduce CO2 emissions is provided.
This is a practical guide to energy that every American should read and understand.
