Zero Carbon World We are not alone… zerocarbonbritain2030
demonstrates how Britain can eliminate emissions from fossil
fuels and break our dependence on imported energy by 2030 by
significantly increasing energy efficiency and by installing
massive renewable energy generation. In Europe, America and
across the world, many organisations are examining how their
nations and regions can do the same. Study published in Energy
Policy by Jacobson and Delucchi showing the feasibility of
providing all energy for all purposes (electric power,
transportation, and heating/cooling), every where in the world,
from wind, water, and the sun. Finds that the cost of energy
would be similar to the cost today and concludes that barriers
to a 100% conversion to wind, wave and solar power worldwide are
primarily social and political, not technological or economic.
Scenario by WWF and Ecofys, showing that a transition is not
only possible but also cost-effective, providing energy that is
affordable for all and producing it in ways
