Energy is central to achieving the interrelated economic, social and environmental aims of sustainable human development. The World Energy Assessment affirms that solutions to the many urgent problems are possible and that the future is much more a matter of choice than destiny. It analyses the social, economic, environmental and security issues linked to energy supply and use, and assesses options for sustainability in each area. Among the many issues discusses are: renewable energy technologies; advanced energy supply technologies; rural energy in developing countries; energy and economic prosperity; and energy policies for sustainable development.
Provides analytical background and scientific information for decision makers at all levels, describing energy's fundamental relationship to sustainable development. Part I overviews energy's relationship to economic development and considers linkages between the present energy system and major global challenges such as poverty and environmental protection. Part II examines energy resources and technological options to meet such challenges, and Part III examines whether sustainable futures are possible. Part IV analyzes policy issues and options that could shift current unsustainable practices in the direction of sustainable development. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
