Synopsis: Book by Leggett, Jeremy

About the Author: Jeremy Leggett began his career as a lecturer in earth sciences at Imperial College, London, where he researched oil source rocks and ancient oceans while consulting for oil corporations. Increasingly concerned about climate change, in 1989 he joined Greenpeace, staying for 7 years, initially as their UK Chief Scientist and later as an international climate campaigner. He is now CEO of Solarcentury the UK's largest independent solar electric company, a member of the UK government's Renewables Advisory Board, and a director of the world's first private-equity investment fund in renewable energy. His first book, The Carbon War, was described as 'the best book yet on the politics of global warming' by the Sunday Times.
