Autor Alternative Energy Institute, Kimberly K. Smithen Limba Engleză Paperback
The four biggest energy sources--oil, natural gas, coal, and uranium--currently power our earth. What would happen to our society if we experienced severe shortages of one or more of these resources? Such a glimpse into the future may become reality sooner than we think. Oil production is soon expected to begin a rapid descent, with natural gas in close pursuit. "Powering Our Future" is an educational tool that opens the door to a future fueled by sustainable, renewable energy. Consumers will learn:
-How our world has become dependent on four nonrenewable resources. -How each resource impacts us politically, economically, and environmentally. -How renewable resources such as hydrogen, fuel cells, wind power, solar energy, hydropower, and more are waiting in the wings. -How the transition to renewable resources will take place, offering economically stable and environmentally safe choices. "Powering Our Future" is a solution-oriented guide that will empower you to make more informed choices as a voter, a contributor to a global economy, and a citizen of the earth.
