In 'The Hydrogen Economy', Jeremy Rifkin takes us on a revealing journey into a new commercial era. Rifkin anticipates the emergence of a hydrogen-based economy, radically transforming our social, political, and commercial institutions, much like coal and steam power did in the industrial age. The author points out that we are approaching a critical point in the fossil fuel era, with potentially disastrous consequences for industrial civilization. Rifkin argues that a new energy regime is emerging that can rebuild our civilization on radically new foundations, allowing for a redistribution of power and transforming the centralized flow of energy.
