Fueling Our Future

Synopsis

One of the most important issues facing humanity today is the prospect of global climate change, brought about primarily by our prolific energy use and heavy dependence on fossil fuels. Fuelling the Future: An Introduction to Sustainable Energy provides an accessible and concise overview of current energy demand and supply patterns. It then presents a balanced view of how our reliance on fossil fuels can be changed over time so that we have a much more sustainable energy system going forward into the twenty-second century. Written in a nontechnical and accessible style, the book will appeal to a wide range of readers without scientific backgrounds: students, policymakers, and the interested general reader.
