Описание книги

Energy Global energy demand has more than doubled since 1970. The use of energy is strongly related to almost every conceivable aspect of development: wealth, health, nutrition, water, infrastructure, education and even life expectancy itself are strongly and significantly related to the consumption of energy per capita. Many development indicators are strongly related to per-capita energy consumption. Fossil fuel is the most conventional source of energy but also increases greenhouse gas emissions. The economic development of many countries has come at the cost of the environment. However, it should not be presumed that a reconciliation of the two is not possible.The nexus concept is the interconnection between the resource energy, water, food, land, and climate. Such interconnections enable us to address trade-offs and seek synergies among them. Energy, water, food, land, and climate are essential resources of our natural environment and support our quality of life. Competition between these resources is increasing globally and is exacerbated by climate change. Improving resilience and securing resource availability would require improving resource efficiency. Many policies and programs are announced nationally and internationally for replacing the conventional mode and also emphasizing on conservation of fossil fuels and reuse of exhausted energy, so a gap in implications and outcomes can be broadly traced by comparing the data.This book aims to highlight problems and solutions related to conventional energy utilization, formation, and multitudes of ecological impacts and tools for the conservation of fossil fuels. The book also discusses modern energy services as one of the sustainable development goals and how the pressure on resource energy disturbs the natural flows. The recent advances in alternative energy sources and their possible future growth are discussed and on how conventional energy leads to greenhouse gas formation, which reduces energy use efficiency. The different policies and models operating is also addressed, and the gaps that remained between them. Climate change poses a challenge for renewable energy, and thus it is essential to identify the factors that would reduce the possibility of relying on sustainable energy sources.This book will be of interest to researchers and stakeholders, students, industries, NGOs, and governmental agencies directly or indirectly associated with energy research.

Over the past millions of years, climate change has occurred steadily and slowly, allowing ecosystems to adapt. However, since the beginning of the twentieth century, organism extinction rates have risen to more than 100 times the normal rate, i.e. without anthropogenic interference. As a result, we are in the midst of a major biodiversity crisis and maybe even head towards another mass extinction (Mendenhall et al. 2014). It is proposed that by 2050, rapid changes are likely to impact both land and ocean ecosystems.

The earth gets enough space from radiation coming from the sun. To hold Earth’s temperature at an optimal level, greenhouse gases play a crucial role in trapping the solar heat needed to sustain life. This phenomenon is natural, known as the greenhouse effect, and therefore important for sustaining various life forms on Earth. Without the greenhouse effect, Earth’s temperature would be around 33 °C lower than it is today (Morice et al. 2012). Human activities have led to substantial increases in atmospheric GHGs due to deforestation and high fossil‐fuel combustion rates in recent decades. Over the last century, GHG production is the primary cause of global warming. Earth warming ranged from +0.8 to +1.0 °C after 1900, according to published literature (Figure 1.3; den Elzen and Meinshausen 2006). Since 1950, land‐only observations have shown warming trends between +1.1 and +1.3 °C, as land temperatures usually react rapidly in the climate change phase compared to oceans. Various factors affect the Earth’s climate, including solar (warming effect), volcanic eruptions (and their cooling effect) and atmospheric GHG levels (warming effect). Methane‐led carbon dioxide (CO2) has been a significant contributor to global warming since the Industrial Revolution of 1750, with CO2 concentrations rising from 278 parts per million (ppm) in 1960 to nearly double at 401 ppm in 2015 (Levitus et al. 2005). Since 1951, almost 100% of the warming is due to anthropogenic activities. Human activities are now responsible for increasing global temperatures by 1.1 °C, and according to reports, global emissions are already heading towards 1.5 °C or near‐mid‐century targets.
