{"product_id":"food-and-fuel-andrew-heintzman-9780887848261","title":"Food and Fuel: Solutions for the Future","description":"The 21st century appears to be dominated by two major global crises: the scarcity of food and the disappearance of fuel. Through shortages and soaring costs, both have had detrimental effects on the environment and both have undermined the global economy -- most importantly, both will continue to do so unless immediate action is taken. This timely and provocative collection of essays explores how and why these problems have developed and what can be done to resolve them. Wide-ranging pieces by trenchant thinkers such as Thomas Homer-Dixon, Gordon Laird, Jeremy Rifkin, Ken Wiwa, Frances Moore Lapp , and Anna Lapp  offer valuable strategies to combat global famine and fast-food fat, business models for safe and sustainable food production and power sources, descriptions of emerging technologies and sciences, a reexamination of nuclear power, and much more. Both remarkable for its depth of thought and eminently readable, \u003ci\u003eFood and Fuel\u003c\/i\u003e provides innovative, practical solutions for dealing with these urgent issues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Heintzman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0887848265\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887848261\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e House of Anansi Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.20w x 1.10d","brand":"Andrew Heintzman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46372328997119,"sku":"9780887848261","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e3a4f2d-fe9a-40a9-ac4a-57978f0882b1.jpg?v=1732725644","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/food-and-fuel-andrew-heintzman-9780887848261","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
