Perl quoted in the Atlantic on cheap gas
November 6, 2014
Post Carbon Fellow Anthony Perl was quoted in this article in The Atlantic on the climate impact of cheap gas.
From the article:
“This is like putting a Big Mac in front of people who need to diet or watch their cholesterol,” Perl said. “Some people might have the willpower to stick with their program, and some people will wait until their first heart attack before committing to a diet—but if we do that at a planetary scale it will be pretty traumatic.”
