"Within the system we have, we will never be able to push the needle far or fast enough toward a renewable energy system," says the report's introduction. "We need to start implementing energy interventions today in key points of the system with the aims of keeping fossil fuels in the ground, deploying renewable energy, and changing our political economy.</p>

In <em>The American Prospect</em>, Next System Project deputy director Dana Brown lays out the case for a public pharmaceutical system. The unwillingness of the major drug corporations to invest in the development of new antibiotics to fight a new generation of "superbugs" vividly demonstrates the need. "Despite the many incentives being thrown their way ... major pharmaceutical companies are pulling out of antibiotic research and development at alarming rates," Brown writes. "In an industry that has a bad case of market-incentive syndrome, it is time to consider the establishment of public pharmaceutical companies as an antidote."
