Book Description Publication Date: July 25, 2012 Thorium energy can help check CO2 and global warming, cut deadly air pollution, provide inexhaustible energy, and increase human prosperity. Our world is beset by global warming, pollution, resource conflicts, and energy poverty. Millions die from coal plant emissions. We war over mideast oil. Food supplies from sea and land are threatened. Developing nations growth exacerbates the crises. Few nations will adopt carbon taxes or energy policies against their economic self-interests to reduce global CO2 emissions. Energy cheaper than coal will dissuade all nations from burning coal. Innovative thorium energy uses economic persuasion to end the pollution, to provide energy and prosperity to developing nations, and to create energy security for all people for all time. This book presents a lucid explanation of the workings of thorium-based reactors. It is must reading for anyone interested in our energy future. Leon Cooper, Brown University physicist and 1972 Nobel laureate for superconductivity As our energy future is essential I can strongly recommend the book for everybody interested in this most significant topic. George Olah, 1994 Nobel laureate for carbon chemistry Format: Single file PDF, multiple screen captures from tablet in portrait view, assembled into a single linear PDF file. 169 MBytes.-------------------------------------Torrent downloaded from http://thepiratebay.se
