A PLANET IN PERIL

Prem Shankar Jha did his postgradution in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) from Oxford in 1961. Between 1961 and 1968, he worked for the U.N. He has been Assistant Editor, and then Economic Editor of The Times of India (1968-86) and a correspondent.

Against a background of growing evidence that the world might be headed not for a gradual warming of the air and a rise in sea levels, but abrupt climate change-which could make most of the world unliveable in a matter of decades-the author explores the technological and economic feasibility of shifting the energy base of society from fossil fuels to renewable sources of energy.
