By: David JC MacKay   | Series: without the hot air 

The enlightening, best-selling book on understanding sustainable energy and how we can make energy plans that add up.

If you've ever wondered how much energy we use, and where it comes from – and where it could come from – but are fed up with all the hot air and 'greenwash', this is the book for you. Renewable resources are 'huge', but our energy consumption is also 'huge'. To compare 'huge' things with each other, we need numbers, not adjectives.

Sustainable Energy – without the hot air addresses the energy crisis objectively, cutting through all the contradictory statements from the media, government, and lobbies of all sides. It gives you the numbers and the facts you need, in bite-sized chunks, so you can understand the issues yourself and organises a plan for change on both a personal level and an international scale – for Europe, the United States, and the world. In case study format, this informative book also answers questions surrounding nuclear energy, the potential of sustainable fossil fuels, and the possibilities of sharing renewable power with foreign countries.

Written by David MacKay, who was an esteemed Professor of Engineering at the University of Cambridge and Chief Scientific Advisor to the UK Department of Climate Change, this is an uplifting, jargon-free and informative read for all. In it, David debunks misinformation and clearly explains the calculations of expenditure per person to encourage people to make individual changes that will benefit the world at large.

If you've thrown your hands up in despair thinking no solution is possible, then read this book - it's an honest, realistic, and humorous discussion of all our energy options.

Would not work in my jeep
Color: Textured
This seems like a decent holder, however it is not universal as it would not fit in my jeep. Check to make sure you have the right kind of air vents for it. I could not get it to work for my vehicle as the vents are too wide.

Works great!
Color: Black, Color: Black
This is a very simple, lightweight phone mount. It works well, I’m surprised how securely it fits on the car vent. I’ve tried others and couldn’t get them to fit right. My phone slides into the top and fits nicely. It was easy to install.

Nice, and would buy it again
Style: Qi2 Charging Mount
So far I'm liking this product. For the model X, you can use it on either side of the screen. As well, it holds on very well on the screen. Very good build quality and design. Fits perfectly to the screen. Very strong magnetic fit. But can cause scratches to your case if tth case is a hard plastic material.

Not perfect, but good enough for daily use
Style: Qi2 Charging Mount
Well made and very strong magnet. Make sure you tighten it completely or it will fall off. The tightening screws are not intuitive, but after some confusion you can figure it out. Works as intended and charging is as fast as your phone allows.
