video trailer for Earth: The Sequel

Today I will hand out a brief section of Earth: The Sequel, a new book by Environmental Defense Fund founder Fred Krupp.

Krupp argues that innovations in clean energy represent an economic opportunity vastly greater than the revolution in personal computers and the Internet. His book explores recent innovations in genetically engineered biofuels, solar, wind, geothermal, and other new technologies.
