Book Synopsis Electricity: Humanity's Low-carbon Future - Safeguarding Our Ecological Niche by : Hans B (Teddy) Puttgen
Download or read book Electricity: Humanity's Low-carbon Future - Safeguarding Our Ecological Niche written by Hans B (Teddy) Puttgen and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2021-06-24 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change is no longer deniable. Neither is the fact that greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities need to be mitigated. The question is how to rapidly transit to an increasingly low-carbon world while essentially sustaining the quality of life of the fortunate and providing better lives for the less fortunate.The challenge is to decarbonize both energy consumption and production with electricity at the core of energy systems.Perhaps Energia, a fictitious country whose 50 million inhabitants endorse climate change objectives and that embodies the energy mutations proposed by the authors, has the answers. Along with Energia, four families living in Africa, America, Asia and Europe who represent us, the consumer, set the stage for the book's discussions.On the user front, the presentation primarily focuses on energy consumption at home and for transport. On the energy production front, the focus shifts to the integration of renewables with fossil and nuclear energy. The book's coverage includes crucial systemic issues related to energy storage, electric power systems and multi-energy systems. In a dedicated chapter, the authors put forward their energy and environmental public policy observations and proposals, including a carbon fee scheme.Electricity is written for readers interested and concerned by the environmental and energy challenges we face, and who seek to participate, as well-informed citizens, in discussions on future energy-related options. The book provides a balanced, factual and unemotional presentation of readily available energy systems and technologies which, when widely deployed, can contribute, both short and long term, toward a low-carbon and electricity-centered world.
Book Synopsis Hydrogen Diplomacy by : Seyed Ehsan Hosseini

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Hydrogen Diplomacy” provides a comprehensive examination of the global transition towards hydrogen as a pivotal energy carrier, emphasizing its urgency amidst environmental crises stemming from fossil fuel usage. The book delves into the potential of hydrogen as a clean and sustainable alternative, elucidating its benefits while navigating the challenges impeding its widespread adoption. From exploring various methods of hydrogen production, including fossil fuel-based and renewables-driven approaches, to scrutinizing the intricate facets of the hydrogen economy, transportation systems, and advancements in storage and delivery mechanisms, each chapter comprehensively elucidates critical aspects of this paradigm shift. Moreover, it examines regional strategies and international collaborations, showcasing the United States' endeavors to leverage hydrogen for decarbonization, the European Union's ambitious hydrogen strategy, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific's vision for a cleaner future. Furthermore, the book explores the roles of other key players, such as Russia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Africa, and South America, in shaping the global landscape of hydrogen technology. With its analysis and strategic insights, "Hydrogen Diplomacy" serves as an indispensable guide for researchers and engineers (Energy, Environmental, Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Material), policymakers, and industry stakeholders navigating the intricate realms of energy transition and diplomacy in the pursuit of a sustainable future.

Book Synopsis Environmental Security in Africa by : Elisha Jasper Dung
Download or read book Environmental Security in Africa written by Elisha Jasper Dung and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-08-19 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental Security in Africa: Conflicts, Politics, and Development investigates the nature, scope, and dimension of environmental security in Africa from a multidisciplinary perspective to examines the history, theories, spatial patterns, sociocultural, socioeconomic consequences, and legal ramifications of Africa’s environmental concerns. This book is grounded in theories that cut across the social, behavioral, and environmental sciences, arguing that environmental security is a multifaceted subject intricately linked to global climate change and magnified by globalization. Drawing from case studies across different parts of Africa, Elisha Jasper Dung, Leonard Sitji Bombom, Augustine Avwunudiogba, and the contributors argue that the integral part of the solution to Africa’s environmental security issues are entrenched in victims' local, regional, social, cultural, political, and economic circumstances in specific geographical locations, such as Nigeria, Northeast Africa, Kenya, and South Sudan. Comprised of 17 chapters, this book provides a unique perspective that facilitates understanding the complex problem of environmental security and its sundry ramifications for scholars and policymakers.
Book Synopsis Energy Security for the EU in the 21st Century by : José María Marín Quemada
Download or read book Energy Security for the EU in the 21st Century written by José María Marín Quemada and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent developments like the rising trend in crude oil price, the international economic crisis, the civil revolts in Northern Africa and the Middle East, the nuclear threat in Japan after the tsunami, the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and the economic growth of emerging countries like China and India have a direct relation to the security of energy supply anywhere in the world. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of energy risks, energy scenarios and energy policies with special reference to the European Union and its member states, emphasizing the economic and geopolitical dimensions of energy security. The book assesses both quantitatively and qualitatively the socioeconomic and political risks related to the European energy supply, together with the EU’s energy relations with other countries. Two innovative indicators have been developed to estimate geopolitical energy risks and energy-related relations with other countries. The book also examines the process of convergence of member states’ energy security policies, the path towards a common European energy policy, and the process of Europeanization projected towards the energy corridors through which the EU receive energy imports. In addition, alternative strategic scenarios related to energy risk are assessed. Finally, guidelines for the EU’s energy policy and new strategies using energy corridors are suggested in order to maximize EU’s energy security. The book should be of interest to students and researchers across a wide range of subjects, including energy economics and policy, energy and foreign policy in the EU, energy policies in EU member states and several aspects related to international political economy.

Book Synopsis Climate Change and Global Sustainability by : Akimasa Sumi
Download or read book Climate Change and Global Sustainability written by Akimasa Sumi and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because climate change involves a wide range of interlinked problems, solutions must be pursued in an interdisciplinary manner. This book adopts just such a holistic approach in examining various aspects of global warming, offering a comprehensive overview. First, the mapping of knowledge about global warming is presented as a framework for addressing the issue. This is followed by a discussion of risk in relation to global warming and of the communication of risk between academia and society. Impacts, adaptation strategies, the institution of a low-carbon society, and other policy concerns are then reviewed. Because human behavior is a critical factor in the move toward a low-carbon society, issues involving quality of life are also presented,with an emphasis on philosophy. Finally, the book considers the integration of three scenarios--a low-carbon society, a resource-circulating society, and a society in harmony with nature--and presents a comprehensive vision of the future.
