    1.0 Introduction Richard J. Muller is an accomplished professor at the University of California at Berkeley with expertise in a variety of areas including: energy efficiency, conservation, solar power, and nuclear power. His book “Energy for Future Presidents” is an open monologue where Muller expresses his thoughts on the current state of energy sources and its potential in a growing world where the demand for energy is continually escalating. The need for this book stems from a lack of in-depth knowledge about energy sources and the issues surrounding it. This publication focuses around exploring alternatives for energy security in the United States, while also keeping in mind the effects that these energy sources have on global warming.

    Rough or unfortunate situations tend to reveal character in people, leading themselves, their family, their friends, and their community in the direction of a more positive future. Without resources or motivation, many people fall victim to inactivity and hopelessness. Innovators and leaders pave the way for others to generate progress in society in difficult times, such as the drought- and hunger-stricken Malawi. One such Malawian innovator is William Kamkwamba, who, with only supplies available in his small rural village and a book in his local library called Using Energy, Kamkwamba was able to build a windmill which powered 4 lights and 2 radios in his home. He experimented with different ways he could use power to better his community, including cell phone charging setups, even concluding with a plan to provide irrigation for his village’s farms, although this wish never came to fruition as William focused on other plans.…

As could be seen, the two are leaning backward to achieve an ideal balance to help them to pull the string tight in a bid to release the arrow towards Abramović’s heart.…
