tailieunhanh - The Political Economy of Sustainable Energy

Concerns about the potential environmental, social and economic impacts of climate change have led to a major international debate over what could and should be done to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, which are claimed to be the main cause. There is still a scientific debate over the likely scale of climate change, and the complex interactions between human activities and climate systems, but, in the words of no less than Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, ‘I say the debate is over. We know the science, we see the threat, and the time for action is now.’. | Energy Climate and the Environment Series The Political Economy of Sustainable Energy Catherine Mitchell The Political Economy of Sustainable Energy Energy Climate and the Environment Series Series Editor David Elliott Emeritus Professor of Technology Open University UK Titles include David Elliott editor NUCLEAR OR NOT Does Nuclear Power Have a Place in a Sustainable Future David Elliott editor SUSTAINABLE ENERGY Opportunities and Limitations Horace Herring and Steve Sorrell editors ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND SUSTAINABLE CONSUMPTION The Rebound Effect Matti Kojo and Tapio Litmanen editors THE RENEWAL OF NUCLEAR POWERINFINLAND Antonio Marquina editor GLOBAL WARMING AND CLIMATE CHANGE Prospects and Policies in Asia and Europ Catherine Mitchell THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF SUSTAINABLE ENERGY Ivan Scrase and Gordon MacKerron Editors ENERGY FOR THE FUTURE A New Agenda Gill Seyfang SUSTAINABLE CONSUMPTION COMMUNITY ACTION AND THE NEW ECONOMICS Seeds of Change Joseph Szarka WIND POWER IN EUROPE Politics Business and Society Energy Climate and the Environment Series Standing Order ISBN 978A -23S2e080 N7 hb 977-0-233-02750-C pb You can receive future titles in this seriAO as s2ey are bubSisCpp Opblacieg a standing order.
