Product Review
Energy Keepers - Energy Killers is the Art of War of this millennium. It brilliantly analyzes the politics of energy, and the ways public policies can affect the civil rights of all Americans. I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to understand the relationships between energy, economic opportunity and environmentalism. Roy Innis is to be commended for his objective, scholarly discussion of energy, economics, climate change and the future of this great nation. --John Meredith, Project 21 and Meredith Advocacy Group
Energy Keepers hits the nail on the head. Roy Innis book is a must-read. Coming to grips with Energy Gaps and other issues raised in this book is vital, if we care about our children and grandchildren and the kind of world we ll leave them. There s no evidence that burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic climate change. And the only petroleum shortages we face are politically induced. Fossil fuels must continue to play a dominant role, if we are to safeguard our poor and elderly, and encourage economic opportunity in the United States and around the world. --Pat Boone & Jim Martin, sixty Plus Association
Roy Innis has given us an inconvenient sleuth into the world of the modern day environmental movement! Even for people who never thought energy could be interesting, Energy Keepers - Energy Killers is a great read! Every parent who cares about the future of their children should check out this book. It kicks butt, names names and it s long overdue! If every American would read any one chapter, a new civil rights movement would definitely emerge! I d love to see one Energy Killer forced to live the lifestyle they are forcing upon others No energy resources, no income, only this book to pass the time. --Al Sonja Schmidt, writer, producer and author
Product Description
Energy Keepers Energy Killers: The New Civil Right Battle exposes the wrongs done to the poor and minorities by environmental and political elites trying to eradicate fossil fuel production - coal, oil, and gas - supposedly to "save the world from global warming." Author Roy Innis, national chairman of the Congress of Racial Equality, shows how their wrongheaded policies price energy out of reach and violate the civil rights of all Americans, but hurt the poor and minorities worst. Innis demands an end to this "energy racism" and calls for the opening of all federal lands - which belong to the disadvantaged as much as to well-funded environmental leaders - to more energy production in a sustained campaign to increase supply and lower prices. Innis reveals the flaws in global warming hysteria and makes the stunning fact clear in his "Energy Reality" chart that so-called "alternative energy" from wind and solar power actually provided less than one-half of one percent of America's energy requirements in 2006. "It's a supplement, not an alternative," Innis says. If we let politicians keep killing off fossil fuels - which give us over 80% of all our present energy - we will deliberately drive ourselves into "the Energy Gap," counting on "alternatives" that do not exist. Innis concludes that current congressional energy policy to kill off fossil fuel production virtually amounts to national suicide and must be prevented at all costs.
Reader ReviewsThe book Energy Keepers, Energy Killers is an excellent overview of both the science and politics of global warming and the energy problem. This book is a concise, well written, and succinct account of the issues involved in energy production. The book does not accept the media bias but courageously takes on the elitist conventional wisdom. In particular Mr. Innis demonstrates that renewables are not a solution to energy deficits and that human caused global warming is a hoax. His report is not long, but is a very good start for the not so well informed general reader. And sometimes in this account Mr. Innis informs even the knowledgeable reader. Mr. Innis also provides a bibliography of resources for anyone interested to continue his/her investigations. Mr. Innis also describes the politics of energy production and the global warming hoax. Mr Innis discusses the NODOG manifesto and other efforts by environmental extremists to block energy production in the United States. This discussion is an invaluable aid to anyone who wishes to be informed on the present political situation in this country and the world.
