Book reviewed in New Scientist No3516: fascinating facts/ideas but over wordy, it says.
Basic idea seems to be that "transitioning" does not reduce previous material consumption but builds upon it.
It's always struck me that all the new tech being discussed does just that (EVs, batteries et al) and that we should be winding back rather than looking for new remedies. This means stopping the use of fossil fuel; not allowing the industry to make future promises which it can't keep. No jam tomorrow, instead start getting used to no jam today.
I'll buy a copy when it's 2nd hand and cheaper!
