This book is about the new energy crisis. The new energy crisis is not related to high oil prices or to the exhaustion of oil and gas reserves. The new crisis comes from the recent intrusion of climate change issues into energy economics and geopolitics. The reality of climate change has been hidden and long denied. Today the warming of the climate is a proven reality and acknowledged by the international scientific community, but no one knows exactly what will be the physical, economic, geopolitical and social impacts of the phenomenon. It could be very costly for the world economy, especially for the more vulnerable countries that are often among the poorest.
