Elton Sherwin's Addicted to Energy is an eminently readable and accessible letter to the nation's governor. This 300+ page "letter" lays out a set of key issues and check lists that provide any (sane) state government (Governor) a sensible starting point for transforming their state from inefficient fossil fuel status quo to a more prosperous climate-friendly future.

Sherwin, a Silicon Valley venture capitalist(Ridgewood Capital), provides clarity as to ways to think about energy challenges, with suggested mindsets that could drive meaningful change.

The inability to deploy cost effective solutions … is one of America's greatest challenges. (p 20)

Sherwin provides thoughts and paths to break through this challenge.
