The arguments over the science of climate change have (largely!) been won so now is the time to influence the discussion about the technology, economics and politics of the transition to a low-carbon world, and particularly in the run-up to the Paris climate talks in December 2015.
A key question this book addresses is how do we power the world not just sustainably but democratically. This angle hasn’t been explored and is key to the climate justice debate. As divestment in fossil fuels is becoming a reality how can investment in renewables be managed. There is an opportunity for energy to be more fairly generated, managed, distributed and funded. Unless people take control of climate discussions the same old corporations will use political power to dominate the industry.
It also includes probably the most comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to the technology for non-technical readers. Chapters address Wind, Hydro, Geothermal and Ambient heat, Wave and Tidal, Fuel Crops, Energy from “waste” and Horizon technologies. show more... How to Download?!!!
