Here’s where to find out about: • The pros and cons of the top energy sources, like fossil fuels, nuclear energy, and hydropower; • The straight goods on hot issues like oil sands, fracking, and greenhouse gases; • Where energy of the future will come from: the sun? tides? algae? or something new? • Answers to intriguing questions such as: What's vampire power, and why does it suck? • What burning waste can do to reduce all that garbage.
