Sustainable Energy - without the hot air

David J.C. MacKay

Cambridge University and Chief Scientific Advisor to the U.K. Department of Energy and Climate Change

How easy is it to get off our fossil habit?  What do the fundamental limits of physics say?  How does our current energy consumption compare to our sustainable energy options?  This lecture will offer a straight-talking assessment of the numbers, and discuss how to make energy plans that add up.

The speaker is also well-known as the author of the free online book about sustainable energy by the same name as the title of the lecture, see www.withouthotair.com.
