HIGH NOON FOR NATURAL GAS By Darley, Julian
Description of the product
In this timely exposé, author Julian Darley takes a hard hitting look at natural gas as an energy source that rapidly went from nuisance to crutch. Darley outlines the implications of our increased dependence on this energy source and why it has the potential to cause serious environmental, political, and economic consequences.
In High Noon for Natural Gas readers will find a critical analysis of government policy on energy, as well as a meticulously researched warning about our next potentially catastrophic
energy crisis.

- Reviews:
"While much is known about the growing pressures on petroleum supplies, far less is known about natural gas. Julian Darley convincingly demonstrates in this important book, that the long range future for gas is equally as bleak as that for oil. This invaluable book arrives at a critical juncture." - Michael Klare, author of Resource Wars: The New Landscape of Global Conflict
