Book Description
A Série Sustentabilidade surgiu a partir da análise do panorama histórico com o início do conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável, formulado pela Comissão Brundtland em 1970, até o evento da Agenda 21 com enorme influência no mundo em todas as áreas, reforçando o movimento ambientalista. A série, escrita por renomados pesquisadores nacionais que apresentam análises do impacto do conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável no Brasil, é coordenada pelo prof. José Goldemberg e tem como objetivo analisar o que está sendo feito para evitar um crescimento populacional sem controle e uma industrialização predatória, em que a ênfase seja apenas o crescimento econômico, bem como o que pode ser feito para reduzir a poluição e os impactos ambientais em geral, aumentar a produção de alimentos sem destruir as florestas e evitar a exaustão dos recursos naturais por meio do uso de fontes de energia de outros produtos renováveis. Neste volume 10 - Energia Nuclear e Sustentabilidade, os autores, por meio de uma linguagem acessível, pretendem trazer ao leitor a questão da sustentabilidade da energia nuclear de forma dinâmica, considerando, claro, características de risco e considerações sobre as energias renováveis ainda não terem sido aplicadas em grande escala global.

The Nuclear Imperative
Author: Jeff W. Eerkens
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402049315
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 165
Book Description
In this global wake-up call, nuclear physicist Jeff Eerkens explores remedies for the impending energy crisis, when oil and natural gas are depleted. The Nuclear Imperative demonstrates that solar, wind, and biomass power are incapable of supplying the enormous quantities of electricity and heat needed for manufacturing portable synthetic fuels to replace our current use of fossil fuels. It offers a fresh look at uranium-produced energy as the optimal affordable solution.

Energy Efficiency

Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9535103407
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Energy efficiency is finally a common sense term. Nowadays almost everyone knows that using energy more efficiently saves money, reduces the emissions of greenhouse gasses and lowers dependence on imported fossil fuels. We are living in a fossil age at the peak of its strength. Competition for securing resources for fuelling economic development is increasing, price of fuels will increase while availability of would gradually decline. Small nations will be first to suffer if caught unprepared in the midst of the struggle for resources among the large players. Here it is where energy efficiency has a potential to lead toward the natural next step - transition away from imported fossil fuels! Someone said that the only thing more harmful then fossil fuel is fossilized thinking. It is our sincere hope that some of chapters in this book will influence you to take a fresh look at the transition to low carbon economy and the role that energy efficiency can play in that process.
