History, science, and geopolitics of the world’s most feared and misunderstood energy.
João Garcia Pulido is an economist, mathematician, business leader and international energy consultant with more than 30 years of experience across the oil, gas and nuclear sectors.
After a successful career as CEO and board member of major energy companies operating across Europe, Africa and Latin America, he founded a technical and environmental consulting group that works with all the major players in the global oil & gas industry.
From the early stages of the energy transition, João Paulo recognized the growing gap between political ambition and technical feasibility. His deep understanding of the challenges involved in delivering energy security, economic growth and environmental responsibility led him to a decisive conclusion: nuclear energy is not just an option — it is a necessity.
Today, as a vocal advocate for science-based policies and pragmatic solutions, he brings to this book his own personal “transition” — from fossil fuels to nuclear — guided by a firm belief that the world must embrace facts over fear if it wants to ensure a sustainable future for the planet.
Through deep research and clear communication, Pulido challenges misinformation and encourages open dialogue. His work bridges the gap between science and public understanding, pushing for progress rooted in fact, not Fear.
Dedicated to sustainability, technological innovation, and energy independence, he believes that nuclear energy is not just a possibility—but a necessity for the planet’s future.
Nuclear energy results in just 0.01 deaths per terawatt-hour—making it safer than both wind and solar.
Nuclear energy helps prevent 2.5 billion tons of CO₂ emissions annually worldwide—making it a powerful ally in the fight against climate change.
A single uranium fuel pellet produces as much energy as 17,000 cubic feet of natural gas or 1 ton of coal—with zero carbon emissions.
More than 30 countries use nuclear energy — from France to the UAE.
