By the end of the 21st century, our oil and natural gas supplies will be virtually nonexistent, and limited coal supplies will be restricted to only a handful of countries. The authors - an environmental scientist and veteran journalist - make abundantly clear that we must plan for a future without reliance on oil. They make a compelling case that the key determinant of our global economy is not so much the invisible hand of the marketplace but the inexorable laws of ecology. Although the coming decades will be a time of much disruption and change of lifestyle, in the end we may learn a wiser, more sustainable stewardship of our natural resources. This timely, sobering, yet constructive discussion of energy and ecology offers a realistic vision of the near future and many important lessons about the limits of our resources.

The price of oil is currently six times as high as five years ago, and will double within the next two years. We're all aware of the negative aspects of being so dependent on oil and you can't ignore the affects on our planet from its abundant use. Even with the more advance western nations taking a stance on alternative energy sources and curbing emissions, it's the emerging markets, such as China and India, which in just a few years will cause a gigantic rise in demand. After nearly a century of an oil-fueled economy, we simply must switch to a new economic model. Our thirst for this, one of our most valuable resources, looks like it simply cannot be quenched. But is it possible to live without oil? Which best practices are available now? What trends and developments are to be expected? Two expert futurologists join forces to give us the answers in Living Without Oil. Adjiedj Bakas and Rob Creemers reveal seven megatrends in this stirring book sure to inspire readers.

Fossil fuels are today essential for modern society: our transport systems and electricity production are largely dependent on this finite resource. Projections based on current consumption say that we could run out of oil shortly after the middle of this century. This and the growing problem of global warming mean that we need to take action now. We can's go on burning fossil fuels for ever. This book examines the alternatives and shows us that it is quite possible to generate electricity and run transport without fossil fuels, helping us secure the future of our planet.

Life is all about compromises, right? Well, if you think you can ignore your bad eating habits just because you exercise regularly, think again. Unfortunately, spending an hour of rigorous exercise in the gym for a greasy double cheeseburger or relying on a good metabolism to take the place of healthy eating habits completely misses the point of living a healthy lifestyle... Eating a healthy diet is far from simple, simply because we humans are very complex beings. We may have it in the back of our minds that we are eating to fuel our bodies, but we actually make the majority of our food choices based on our enjoyment factor. And that is the main reason why it has become so tough in today's world to switch to a healthy eating habits because we are just not ready to give up on the taste factor and the happiness it brings with it. Well!! what if I tell you that you can still choose a healthy option? You just need to avoid one thing, and that is "OIL"Don't worry, I am not telling you to eat bland food or make your mind to switch to eating boiled food only. No Oil cooking is not magic... You just need to know the techniques which will lead you to cook great and yummy food without compromising on taste...
