For centuries fossil fuels have been king of the realm of energy. They have generated most of the energy to run our transport system, power our businesses and light our homes, but we are paying the price. The combustion of fossil fuels has extracted an enormous toll on humanity and the environment-from air and water pollution to global warming. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has found that emissions from fossil fuels are the dominant cause of global warming.Climate change has now become a mega-issue and central to the future energy as the world is moving rapidly away from fossil fuels to new technologies such as wind, solar and hydrogen to generate clean energy.The book is a rich compendium of information supplemented with historical and factual data about the status of fossil fuels in India and efforts to develop the country's vast domestic potentials of renewable energy for a sustainable future. India's strategy unveiled at COP 26 in Glasgow, to install non-fossil fuel electricity of 500 GW capacity by 2030, and to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2070 is a focused target set by the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), which lends authority to the topic.The author's experience as a journalist in various capacities in several notable media houses and especially the energy sector makes him a credible resource person on the subject of fossil fuels and renewable energy.

A remarkable, first-ever collection of 35 essays on India's future, by a diverse set of authors - activists, researchers, media practitioners, those who have influenced policies and those working at the grassroots. This book brings together scenarios of an India that is politically and socially egalitarian, radically democratic, economically sustainable and equitable, and socio-culturally diverse and harmonious. Alternative Futures: India Unshackled covers a wide range of issues, organized under four sections. It explores ecological futures including environmental governance, biodiversity conservation, water and energy. Next, it envisions political futures including those of democracy and power, law, ideology, and India's role in the globe. A number of essays then look at economic futures, including agriculture, pastoralism, industry, crafts, villages and cities, localization, markets, transportation and technology. Finally, it explores socio-cultural futures, encompassing languages, learning and education, knowledge, health, sexuality and gender, and marginalized sections like dalits, adivasis, and religious minorities. Introductory and concluding essays tie these diverse visions together. Most essays include both futuristic scenarios and present initiatives that demonstrate the possibility of such futures. At a time when India faces increasing polarization along parochial, physical and mental boundaries, these essays provide a breath of fresh air and hope in the grounded possibilities for an alternative, decentralized, eco-culturally centred future. The essays range from the dreamy-eyed to the hard-headed, from the provocative to the gently persuasive. This book would hold appeal for a wide range of readers - youth, academics, development professionals, policy makers, government officials, activists, people's movements, media persons, business persons - concerned about the current state of India and the world, and willing to engage critically in the collective search for a better future.
