Aimed at the general audience, this volume outlines the global challenge of decreasing greenhouse gas emissions. It covers the changing concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide through time as well as its causes. It then examines the promise and limitations of a wide range of energy technologies for decreasing carbon dioxide emissions. For people who are concerned about climate change or want to learn more about clean energy technologies, this is the definitive survey of the opportunities and the challenges we face in decreasing emissions despite a seemingly inexorable global increase in energy demand.…mehr
