Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Is America in jeopardy?Any day, America could be held hostage over critical minerals used in all advanced technologies due to the decades-long shunning of domestic mining. Groundbreaking! describes the all-too-real consequences of misguided policy decisions and environmental alarmism, and recommends 21st-century solutions to sustainable self-reliance by leveraging the wealth right under our feet.By importing 100% of key minerals from China, Russia, and third world dictatorships, we face an ongoing risk of losing the technology behind everything from smartphones to "green" technology. The recent requirements put into place by our legislators and regulators literally require tons of minerals for batteries and magnets to run electric cars and trucks; to support advancements in medical equipment such as dental drills and MRIs; and to manufacture solar panels and wind turbines for alternative energy sources. Advanced weaponry and defensive equipment for our troops requires critical minerals, too, yet we are reliant on getting that gear from countries who at best could be called allies, and at worst are outright hostile to America's values.Our policies must acknowledge the reality that critical minerals, or more accurately the lack thereof, often play a key role in dictating foreign policy and national security decisions.Planning to adapt before a problem occurs must become a national goal. This means reversing dangerous import trends and exploring for domestic minerals-the two major policy goals explained in this book.With a Foreword by Paul Driessen, Senior Policy Advisor, Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow"EVERYONE in government & industry should endorse this PLAN"ENDORSEMENTS: Groundbreaking! is the culmination of sharp-eyed insight into the decades-long erosion of U.S. mining and the need to reverse this self-imposed economic and national security vulnerability.Mamula and Bridges have woven together myriad threads to give us the startling implications of our failed minerals policies. National Mining AssociationAmerica is sitting on a multi-trillion dollar treasure chest of minerals and valuable resources. Why aren't we benefiting from these riches buried right below our feet?Steve Moore, Distinguished Visiting Fellow, Institute for Economic Freedom, The Heritage FoundationMamula and Bridges have succeeded in delivering a very complete narrative of where we are, how we got there, and what to do about fixing it. This book should reside in the library of every national security professional and be used as a major reference work.Dean Popps, Former US Army Acquisition Executive & Acting Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition Logistics and TechnologyThis was a fascinating read, and compelling. [T]his should serve as a wake-up call to legislators and the general public. Our exposure to seriously restrictive policies by China could be the Sputnik Moment of our generation.John Keating, Venture Advisor, Silicon Valley, Former VP Government Programs & Discoveries Business Unit, Intermolecular, Inc.Groundbreaking! is a book that all Americans who care about our national security should read. It is a call to action to restore our mineral independence. Mamula and Bridges' book is both a readable narrative and a skilled study by two expert authorities on our mineral resources.John Adams, Brigadier General, U.S. Army (Ret.), President, Guardian Six LLCIf you care about technological vulnerability in an interdependent world-and you should-Groundbreaking needs to be front and center on your bookshelf.Patrick J. Michaels, author of Lukewarming: The New Climate Science that Changes EverythingCongressman Jim Santini (R-NV) and Governor and later President Ronald Reagan knew all this and much, much more but few listened to them back then.

Condizione: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | America has stumbled in maintaining its global leadership position. This book exposes the core reason: staggering over-reliance on other countries to provide the foundational mineral resources which underpin modern energy, economic, and national security. Decades-old policies need a re-boot to switch from undermining America's lands and power to incentivizing self-reliance again. With an intense focus on solutions, Undermining Power challenges the status quo on multiple levels, and asks the tough questions that policymakers, regulators, and citizens alike need to ponder as we are well into the 21st century.Do you have the facts about the vulnerabilities of supply chains to support any of our modern lifestyle? Does clean energy have a reliable, maintained, 21st century infrastructure ready to handle an entirely new process to deliver power to our homes, businesses, and industries? What happens to any economy when it cannot deliver not only energy, but the technology and mobile communications infrastructure that we rely on every minute for emergencies, health, and defense? Lastly, if our national security systems rely on imports from adversarial countries, or across great distances, how can our military declare a state of readiness when we do not have within our own power the means to manufacture modern-day equipment needed for our defense? Dr. Ned Mamula and Ann Bridges continue where they left off in Groundbreaking! America's New Quest for Mineral Independence. This inside look into America's mineral supply chain weaknesses in Undermining Power broadens on those themes and exposes the obstacles standing in the way of shoring up our vulnerabilities with pragmatic, actionable policy solutions. Using case studies and role models of modern-day mining rather than last century's scare tactics, they collaborate again to blow away disinformation with an easy-to-understand narrative. The book's theme introduces the concept that mineral security is the foundation for energy reliability, economic wealth, and national security, and therefore tapping domestic mineral resources must be understood within that framework. As clean technology has boosted the efficiencies and potential profit of other industries, modern mineral exploration and discovery is now using tools to develop resources to support and contribute to an allied-based supply chain. What's getting in the way are old perceptions perpetuated and encouraged by those who benefit most by leaving America floundering in a state of perpetual status quo, while the new players of this century-geopolitical, financial, environmental-exploit this complacence to our detriment. Acknowledgment that our existing policies are failing must be coupled with bold leadership and creative problem-solving. Rather than waiting for the next unexpected shock to a stretched-out and unreliable supply chain, they suggest that mostly what is required is political will to welcome this foundational industry back into the fold of innovative, successful endeavors which have and will contribute greatly to raising America's leadership standing in the world.

paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
