How can the US free itself from our oil addiction? David Sandalow in his new book, "Freedom from Oil: How the next President can end the United States' oil addiction" attempts to address this question.
One of the things he is adamant about is finding ways in which oil can be replaced. "Oil has a proper place in our lives and economy. It is not evil. But our dependence on it makes us weak,” the author is quoted in a Reuters article.
Culled from the Amazon book description, “Throughout the book, profiles of fascinating individuals help bring serious policy dialogue to life. From the commander of U.S. forces in western Iraq to a grandmother in northern Alaska to an electric car entrepreneur to the winner of the Indianapolis 500, Freedom from Oil is filled with stories of people whose lives have been touched by oil dependence-and are working to find solutions.”
