An elasticity literature review 1

I’ve done a lot of useful work on elasticity over the years. The following word file [doc] gathers the literature reviews I’ve put together, for your convenience.

Gar Lipow, a long time environmental activist and journalist with a strong technical background has spent years immersed in the subject of efficiency and renewable energy. He has written extensively on the economics of solving the global warming, and why pricing externalities (though important) cannot be the main driver of such solutions.

His on-line reference book compiling information on technology available today, “No Hair Shirt Solutions to Global Warming”, is available at http://www.nohairshirts.com.

His articles on the economics and politics of solving the climate crisis have been published in Z magazine and a number of small journals.

    Innovation Too Tied To Present

    The problem with this type of thinking is that it focuses research and effort on existing ways of doing things.
    The alternative is the Defense or Space Program style which exists outside the current system, proposes an impossible target and along the way, creates unexpected order of magnitude innovations.
