The end of energy obesity : breaking today's energy addiction for a prosperous and secure tomorrow / by Tertzakian, Peter.(CARDINAL)278021; Hollihan, Keith.(CARDINAL)468183;
MARCIVE 09/21/09Includes bibliographical references (pages 279-287) and index.Pt. 1: The making of our energy appetite. After the banquet ; Whetting the energy appetite ; The first principle of energy consumption ; The world's factory -- Pt. 2: Elusive solutions. Breaking our energy diet ; Price and value ; Eating our efficiencies ; Complex carbons ; The maddening allure of the first principle -- Pt. 3: Thinking out of the box. The asymmetry principle ; Beyond nostalgia ; Conservation 2.0 ; Dissolving distance ; A low-carb, highly-scaleable diet ; The energy health craze -- Epilogue: Leadership on the commons.Nearly everything that defines our way of life requires energy-consuming devices, from cars, planes, trains, and air conditioning to lights and computers. And our global appetite for energy keeps growing as population and wealth obliges consumption on an unfathomable scale. Energy economist Peter Tertzakian explores how the world can reduce its energy appetite and change its diet of fuels for a prosperous and secure tomorrow, focuses on the most practical options that provide the highest leverage for resolving our energy problems, and reveals how evolving habits, lifestyles, mindsets and innovations--that might seem improbable now--will help curb our insatiable energy appetite.--From publisher description.

And this is a good thing; our mastery of energy is what separates us from the rest of the animal kingdom and has allowed us to be the dominant species on the planet. However, this mastery comes with a price: we are changing our environment in a profoundly negative way by heating it up. Using one engaging story after another, coupled with accessible scientific facts, the author explores the history of energy use by humans over the centuries, gives a doubt-destroying proof that already-high levels of carbon dioxide are causing damaging global warming, and surveys the alternative energy options that are available to exploit right now. These new energy sources might well be the engines for economic growth in the twenty-first century.--From publisher description.
