Introduction -- The green panic: all roads lead out of oil -- What works now? -- The hydrogen pork barrel, market forces, and subsidized bubbles -- The bubble at the convergence of four dreams -- Why the greens turned out to be right -- The ghost of Arthur Andersen -- Selling the wind -- The United States outdistanced by Japan, Spain, Germany, France, Canada, Denmark, Brazil, India, and China -- Why should all of this produce a new energy bubble?

In this prescient volume, noted economist Robert Bell argues that the next four years will be an increasingly frenzied lead-up to a gigantic stock market bubble in renewable energy;-the new energy revolution will have a profound impact on everything that human beings construct, move, or deliberately heat or cool;—and the consequences of the first truly global stock market bubble will transform every country, every industry, and nearly every business.
