Synopsis "The non-solutions project (non color)"

(This book contains graphs, charts, and pictures which are converted from color to black and white, which makes them less clear - soon all facts and figures will be available on my personal website - there's also a full-color version of the book). Mark Z. Jacobson, a Stanford University Professor, has presented a roadmap in which he postulates that it should be possible to decarbonize all energy production and consumption on the world by 2050. This document is called the 100%WWS Roadmap and is available at "the Solutions Project" website. In this book I am going to show you that the feasibility of this roadmap has been weighed incorrectly. Also, Jacobson has shown that he doesn't accept criticism from anyone, scientists or not. He is backed by one of the wealthiest Universities in the world, and he has the outspoken support of celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio, Bill Nye and Mark Ruffalo. His claims have swayed influential journalists and leading politicians, but his errors make this rebuttal essential. Academic pedigree or expertise becomes irrelevant when the facts don't support the claims. Only evidence-or its absence-matters. I don't ask, nor expect, you to believe me. I want you to use your mind and determine whether the 100%WWS Roadmap is realistic or not. The 100%WWS Roadmap is based on published and peer-reviewed papers; who am I to question the validity of this roadmap? The case against the 100%WWS Roadmap will be based on physics and calculations. The counter argument: addressing the need for nuclear energy to be included in a future low-carbon energy mix. Does the Solutions Project provide a Polaris by which to navigate through our age of perils?
