Resource Revolution
How to Capture the Biggest Business Opportunity in a Century

Quotes

“If you’re feeling down about the world, the book, Resource Revolution: How to Capture the Biggest Business Opportunity in a Century, is an antidote.” —The New York Times “The energy industry is undergoing a breathtaking pace of change, but the scale of transformation is obscured by the vast network of legacy assets controlled by large incumbents. Resource Revolution walks us through the technological and demographic trends that will render the old business models that dominate legacy assets obsolete and argues elegantly that the next industrial revolution is upon us. With a nuts and bolts prescription on revolutionary possibilities, Stefan Heck and Matt Rogers have produced a readable, entertaining guidebook that should be on the desks of every CEO with a vision to the future.  If you are over 50, oversee corporate resources or private funds, and have a millennial child who is trying to teach you how to recycle properly and benefit from the sharing economy, Resource Revolution is a must-read.” —Amy Myers Jaffe, Executive Director, Energy and Sustainability, University of California, Davis“For 50 years, resource constraints have been seen as a serious threat to human well-being and progress -- threatening food shortages, environmental collapse, and economic ruin. Heck and Rogers turn this picture upside down -- showing how the impending “resource revolution” promises to bring innovation, prosperity, and economic growth on an ever more sustainable basis. Their book is a must read for policymakers, business leaders, market analysts, and anyone else with an interest in the future of humankind.” —Dan Esty, Hillhouse Professor, Yale University, and author of Green to Gold
