_aReducing and managing humanity's demand for energy is a fundamental part of the effort to mitigate climate change. In this, the most comprehensive textbook ever written on the subject, L. D. Danny Harvey lays out the theory and practice of how things must change if we are to meet our energy needs sustainably. The book begins with a succinct summary of the scientific basis for concern over global warming, then outlines energy basics and current patterns and trends in energy use. This is followed by a discussion of current and advanced technologies for the generation of electricity from fossil fuels. The book then considers in detail how energy is used, and how this use can be dramatically reduced, in the following end-use sectors: buildings ,transportation ,industry ,food and agriculture ,municipal services _bChapter 1 Prospective Climatic Change, Impacts and Constraints 1Chapter 2 Energy Basics, Usage Patterns and Trends, and Related GreenhouseGas and Pollutant Emissions 23Chapter 3 Generation of Electricity from Fossil Fuels 77Chapter 4 Energy Use in Buildings 115Chapter 5 Transportation Energy Use 247Chapter 6 Industrial Energy Use 331Chapter 7 Agricultural and Food System Energy Use 425Chapter 8 Municipal Services 469Chapter 9 Community-Integrated Energy Systems 493Chapter 10 Energy Demand Scenarios 509Chapter 11 Policies to Reduce the Demand for Energy 537 |
