  In the book ???The World is Flat??? Tom Friedman asks for a vigorous plan to counter global warming. He suggests the Apollo moon landing program as the model for an energy development program.
  
  This note is to alert you to the publication of my book ???Global Warming Can Be Conquered??? (ISBN 07 414 426 8 X). This book answers Mr. Friedman???s request.
  
  In the book I justify the need for, and outline an ambitious plan for a new energy infrastructure called the Renewable- Fusion-Hydrogen (RFH) Energy System. This system offers TOTAL elimination of the emission of fossil carbon by 2050. It is NOT the 80% reduction by 2050, currently under discussion. The 80% reduction in carbon dioxide may slow warming but is inadequate to protect the biosphere for more than a few decades. RFH Energy System has the potential to push critical warming off for several centuries and in the interim provides all nations with energy independence.
  
  My goal is to develop world wide interest in implementing the RFH Energy System. If you think the RFH Energy System makes sense please help me promote it by encouraging everyone you know to support its implementation. You can help by simply forward this note to everyone on your contact list, or if you buy the book lend it to others.
  
  We must commence dramatic reduction in the emission of carbon dioxide within the next few years. If you have an alternate plan, promote it and if it is better than RFH energy I will help promote your system. We need to act!
  
  You can review a brief outline of the system on my web site at:

  You can send me a note at my e-mail address lowilliams@msn.com
  
  or place one on my blog at:

  You can buy the book ???Global Warming Can Be Conquered??? (ISBN 07 414 426 8 X) from the publisher for $19.95 at: www.bbotw.com

  Carbon offsets are a great way to reduce your climate impact and help us make clean energy cost less than dirty energy. If you are going to get in a plane, for whatever reason, you have a carbon footprint. If you turn on the lights in your home, heat your home or commute to work on a subway, you have a climate impact. If you eat food or wear clothes or use a computer for work that were made with energy, you have a carbon footprint.
  And that gives you choices: do something or do nothing. Carbon offsets empower people to do have a positive impact against global warming.

  I am glad to see CES showing such leadership on global warming, which threatens all of us. We need to reduce our emissions as much as possible but we also need to work, travel and live, so doing so in as green a way as possible is vital and CES is showing how we can do both. It just makes sense that if you are going to cause emissions from something you need to do, you would reduce emissions somewhere else, like with wind energy or energy efficiency.
  
  I was pumped to read about all the new green products using recycled materials and less energy. We need to attack this from multiple angles.
