Über diesen Titel

 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.

    Alex really pulls the left with its eco-agenda off their playing field. Instead of discussing endlessly "the science", he instead highlights the anti-human moral framework that is so prevalent on the left.
    Many critical minds that started to mistrust the state and the media the last few years still buy into the false dooms day predictions and support the sustainability agenda. I believe this book will help these people to get their facts and their moral compass back in order.

    More people need to read this book. As a science student I was on the anti impact framework as well or at least partly and tho that it is important to reduce CO2 emissions in order to avoid a humanitarian catastrophe. I never tho that all these scientific evidence could be distorted this much because after all to my understanding science is there to find the objective truth about things and work towards human flourishing.
    The lies, misguidance and bad policies we currently go through in the west on many different levels are very outrageous. And I hope people will at some point look at the energy bills and realize that a life in prosperity demands cheap and available energy from all possible sources.

    Great book

    An eye-opening, provocative, comprehensive, well-structured and convincing attempt to diversify the one-sided debate about climate change and energy policy. A must read for everyone interested in the above topics - at least to get a different point of view.

    What a complete mind blowing view on the whole climate and fossil fuel topic. The human flourishing perspective changed my way of thinking about it drastically and I recommend it to every environmentalist.
