Isbn: 9780521679794 - sustainable fossil fuels: the unusual suspect in the quest for clean and enduring energy (42 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. More and more people believe we must quickly wean ourselves from fossil fuels - oil, natural gas and coal - to save the planet from environmental catastrophe, wars and economic collapse. In this 2006 book, Professor Jaccard argues that this view is misguided. We have the technological capability to use fossil fuels without emitting climate-threatening greenhouse gases or other pollutants. The transition from conventional oil and gas to their unconventional sources including coal for producing electricity, hydrogen and cleaner-burning fuels will decrease energy dependence on politically unstable regions. In addition, our vast fossil fuel resources will be the cheapest source of clean energy for the next century and perhaps longer, which is critical for the economic and social development of the world's poorer countries. By buying time for increasing energy efficiency, developing renewable energy technologies and making nuclear power more attractive, fossil fuels will play a key role in humanity's quest for a sustainable energy system.…

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to inside corners; ffep damp handled; dot stain to inside edge; otherwise very minimal wear; "Discussions of energy options too often oversimplify the world into good guys and bad guys. Jaccard has brought cool analysis and common sense to a complex area of public policy fraught with myth and image management. His objective is to consider what might constitute a more sustainable energy system and in this he considers not only the usual suspects (energy efficiency, nuclear and renewables) but the unusual - fossil fuels. In doing so, he moves beyond the simplistic rhetoric and offers us practical policy recommendation that deserve serious consideration." - Milton Catelin.…
