New book offers solutions for world's energy crisis

Running on Empty, by Phillip J. Greene, dissects the current state of the energy crisis, relays serious issues in layman's terms and offers tips on how to conserve

TUCSON, Ariz. (MMD Newswire) September 28, 2009 -- Running on Empty: A Handbook for Understanding and Surviving the Energy Crisis, by Phillip J. Greene, seeks to provide an easy-to-understand explanation of the world's current energy crisis and practical tips on saving energy.

Greene understands the need for resource conservation. After surviving the scarcity of war rations as a young child in the 1940s and living through the energy crisis of 1973, all of the recent buzz about global warming, oil dependency and energy crises had a familiar tone for him. During his research of the 21st-century energy crisis, Greene felt there were no books out there that described what is actually happening in a constructive and useful manner.

Running on Empty is a user-friendly guide to grasping the facts about energy shortages. Greene hopes to explain many current topics relating to conservation, including the congressional energy bill proposal in plain language. He intends to help the reader understand what a world without oil and fossil fuels would be like, then offers more than 100 tips on how readers can save energy, save money and reduce their carbon footprint.

Running on Empty also aims to define various alternative energy sources and present ideas on how to reverse the impact of excessive energy consumption. Greene wants to show what the future can be like, free of fossil fuels and energy dependence.

Running on Empty: A Handbook for Understanding and Surviving the Energy Crisis is available for sale online at Amazon.com, BookSurge.com and through additional wholesale retail channels worldwide.
