Eating Fossil Fuels: Oil, Food, and the Coming Crisis in Agriculture Paperback - 2006
by Dale Allen Pfeiffer
Summary
The miracle of the Green Revolution was made possible by cheap fossil fuels to supply crops with artificial fertilizer, pesticides, and irrigation.

Such an imbalance cannot continue in a world of diminishing hydrocarbon resources. Eating Fossil Fuels examines the interlinked crises of energy and agriculture and highlights some startling findings.
