Ton Schoot Uiterkamp completed his degree in Physical Chemistry in 1969, and gained his PhD in biophysical chemistry four years later on research into snail blood. He then spent two years working for UNESCO in Egypt, four years at Yale University and four years at Harvard. In 1982, Schoot Uiterkamp joined TNO in Delft, first as an executive staff member and later as Head of the Biology department. He has been Professor of Environmental Studies at the University of Groningen since 1991.

The question of whether current energy use can be maintained in the future can be answered in one word: no.
