Walt Patterson On Energy

Keeping The Lights On


We are making a mess of energy. What we're doing with it is leaving people in the dark and endangering the planet. But we could do much better. Keeping The Lights On shows how - a different way to think about energy, what we want from it and how we get it.

Keeping The Lights On challenges sterile and damaging misconceptions, with an exhilarating vision of a brighter future. We can make energy use more reliable, more equitable, and more sustainable, for ourselves and our children, starting with electricity, starting now.

Praise for Keeping The Lights On.
