Congressman Jerry McNerney stopped by Oakley yesterday to partake in an event put on by the Friends of Marsh Creek Watershed to discuss renewable energy at Big Break Regional Park.

Congressman Jerry McNerney and journalist Martin Cheek discussed their book Clean Energy Nation: Freeing America from the Tyranny of Fossil Fuels. This book encourages Americans to unite together to bring about a better future for the world.

In speaking with McNerny prior to the event, he was ready to talk about how wonderful Big Break was and the atmosphere it provides for those who want to enjoy the Delta.

About his Clean Energy Nation via Amazon

In “Clean Energy Nation”, he and journalist Martin Cheek make an impassioned argument for drastically reducing dependency on fossil fuels and developing sustainable, readily available energy sources solar, wind, biofuel, geothermal, and hydrogen-based power. Bringing together a rare combination of scientific knowledge, political savvy, and insightful journalism, the authors reveal the pros and cons of alternative energy sources and examine how our nation became addicted to fossil fuels in the first place. The book reads like the dramatic story it is, complete with dire projections about peak oil and grim scenarios of rising oceans! keen insights into policies and players that have stalled progress on climate change and favored big oil!and astute recommendations for building a clean energy economy and a prosperous, stable future.
