Renewable energy : ten short lessons / by Peake, Stephen,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 177-178) and index.There's no such thing as energy -- Nothing is truly renewable -- The climate clock is ticking -- We will thrive on sunlight -- Cubism is the art of wind energy -- Plants and water are powerful -- There's plenty of bounty below -- Utopias are electric -- Negative energy is positive -- Imagination is renewable energy."In Renewable Energy: Ten Short Lessons, Stephen Peake distills the key issues of this timely subject, examining how we can harness the power of a range of groundbreaking energy technologies most effectively to achieve a sustainable energy future. Renewable energy is central to managing climate change and our transition to a sustainable energy supply for the 10 billion of us who will populate the earth by 2050. But how will we cope without fossil fuels to heat, cool, and light our buildings, power our industry, and run our transport systems? And are some renewables better than others? Packed full of easy-to-understand diagrams and fact boxes, these ten lessons cover all the basics, as well as the latest understanding and developments, to enlighten the nonscientist. About the series: The Pocket Einstein series is a collection of essential pocket-sized guides for anyone looking to understand a little more about some of the most important and fascinating areas of science in the twenty-first century. Broken down into ten simple lessons and written by leading experts in their field, the books reveal the ten most important takeaways from those areas of science you've always wanted to know more about." -- Back cover.
