Fossil Future: Why Global Human Flourishing Requires More Oil, Coal, and Natural Gas–Not Less is a 2022 book by Alex Epstein that argues in support of fossil fuels as being essential for human flourishing. The book also criticizes other people labeled as "experts" by what Epstein calls the "knowledge system" (the mainstream media largely), who have often been wrong in their predictions about climate catastrophe, but that are still trusted as "experts" by that system of information dissemination.
