Ugo Bardi
Ugo Bardi (born May 23, 1952 in Florence, Italy[1]) is a professor of physical chemistry at the University of Florence.[2]
Career[]
Bardi is a researcher on materials for new energy sources, a contributor to the now-defunct website, "The Oil Drum". He is the co-founder and former president of ASPO Italy, a member of the scientific committee of the (ASPO),[3] a member of the Club of Rome,[4] and author of several books, including The Limits to Growth Revisited.
