Description

 							
  
  Climate change, along with the
depletion of oil, coal, and gas, dictate that we will inevitably move away from our profound societal reliance on fossil
fuels; but just how big a transformation will this be? While many policy-makers assume that renewable energy sources
will provide an easy "plug-and-play" solution, author Richard Heinberg suggests instead that we are in for a wild ride;
a "civilization reboot" on a scale similar to the agricultural and industrial revolutions.
  
  Afterburn
consists of fifteen essays exploring various aspects of the twenty-first century migration away from fossil fuels
including:
  
  Short-term political and economic factors that impede broad-scale, organized efforts to
adapt
  The origin of longer-term trends (such as consumerism), that have created a way of life that seems "normal"
to most Americans, but is actually unprecedented, highly fragile, and unsustainable
  Potential opportunities and
sources of conflict that are likely to emerge
  From the inevitability and desirability of more locally organized
economies to the urgent need to preserve our recent cultural achievements and the futility of pursuing economic growth
above all, Afterburn offers cutting-edge perspectives and insights that challenge conventional thinking about our
present, our future, and the choices in our hands.
  
  Richard Heinberg is a senior fellow of the Post Carbon
Institute, the author of eleven previous books including The Party's Over and The End of Growth. He is widely regarded
as one of the world's most effective communicators of the urgent need to transition away from fossil fuels.
  
  Review
  With rare insight, clarity, and compassion, Richard Heinberg helps us face the music. Over the years,
since The Party’s Over, his books have earned our trust with their accuracy in delineating the limits of the
possible. Now in this bold collection of essays, he helps us see the landscape being bequeathed us by the Great Burning
— an understanding that is necessary to the Great Turning — and will save us considerable time and
confusion. With ever more gratitude I bow to those who shake us awake.
  —Joanna Macy, author, Coming Back
to Life:The Updated Guide to the Work That Reconnects.
  
  
  
  Afterburngives us a sense of a
survivable future – hope fed by Heinberg’s realistic deeper analysis, a sense of the trends ahead, and a
bold (largely local) plan. Few are as good at the craft of synthesizing this powerful package then Richard Heinberg.
This book will help fuel the future.

  In my business we have a saying: hope is a terrible investment strategy.
Let’s go further and say hope alone is a terrible strategy, period. Yet most of society continues to simply
ignore the freely available and terribly important information about where we are headed on this planet, and simply hope
that things will work themselves out somehow. They won’t, and we all know that now on some level. Afterburn
bravely and thoughtfully examines the predicament we face, one idea and one fact at a time. Those who can stir in a few
facts along with their hope will be able to both understand and foresee what the future holds. Pick up this book. Read
it. Discuss it. Let it sink into your bones, and then understand that this book is not asking you to abandon hope, it is
inviting us all to greatness.

  Afterburn is like a “Richard Heinberg’s Greatest Hits” compilation, drawing together a
selection of his prolific output from the last few years. To choose what went in must have been to pore over an
embarrassment of riches, given his seemingly untiring creativity and brilliance. He writes with incision, with passion,
with rage, with compassion, and Afterburn captures in one single publication why he’s such a shining light of
insight in times of much darkness. The Party’s Over changed my life. Perhaps Afterburn will change yours.
