Product Information
The generation and use of energy probably has the largest environmental impact of all human activities. But the depletion of fossil fuels, the increasing cost of petrol and global warming have raised serious questions about our energy consumption. This book discusses the viability of alternatives to fossil fuels: nuclear, hydro, wind, tidal, wave, biomass and solar energy. A chapter is also devoted to energy efficiency in the home. The information comes from a wide variety of sources and includes government reports and statistics, newspaper reports, features, magazine articles and surveys, literature from lobby groups and charitable organisations.Product Identifiers
