CleanTechnica’s first published book — Outta Gas

CleanTechnica Press has released its inaugural book, Outta Gas, authored by Scott Cooney. The book aims to provide a clear and focused understanding of the climate crisis, helping readers to concentrate on the most effective solutions while avoiding distractions and misinformation. Cooney’s approach combines optimism with practical guidance, encouraging resilience and sustained effort in the fight against climate change. Outta Gas has garnered praise from notable figures in the environmental field. Professor Mark Z. Jacobson of Stanford University commends the book for its engaging style and practical advice, while David Hochschild, Chair of the California Energy Commission, describes it as a timely and inspiring roadmap to the progress being made in climate solutions. These endorsements highlight the book’s blend of scientific insight and motivational storytelling. The author draws on three decades of experience in the climate movement, emphasising the importance of psychological resilience and purposeful action. Cooney reflects on the emotional challenges faced by activists but stresses the value of optimism and the mental benefits of a meaningful commitment to environmental causes. This perspective underpins the book’s dual theme of moving away from fossil fuels without losing momentum or hope. Outta Gas is positioned as both a practical guide and a source of inspiration for those engaged in climate action. By focusing on what is working and fostering a strong, resilient community, it aims to empower readers to contribute effectively to a sustainable future. The book is now available for purchase, marking a significant milestone for CleanTechnica Press as it expands its role in climate communication.
