Book review: Ten technologies to save the planet

I've been reading the book Ten technologies to save the planet by Chris Goodall

(http://www.amazon.co.uk/Technologies-Save-Planet-Chris-Goodall/dp/184668868X)

It is a very interesting book. The only negative aspects I found were that the author does not present referrences and that he has a almost exclusively climate change oriented vision.

The book is roughly about renewable electricity production (wind, solar and wave and tidal energy), energy efficiency (industrial and in houses), alternatives to fossil fuels in transportation (electricity and biofuels), carbon capture (industrially and through soil and forests). The last chapter puts it all together.
