More environment must be displaced to get the energy Component1 #45837

CONTEXT(Help)

Compression Thinking »Compression ThinkingCompression Thinking☜Population growth squeezes all of us on a planet whose resources are finite. To not only survive, but improve quality of life, we must become much smarter using what we have. For practical, effective action, work organizations critical to Compression must greatly compress their learning cycles.☜F1CEB7

Compression vs. Expansion Thinking »Compression vs. Expansion ThinkingCompression vs. Expansion Thinking☜In Compression we must learn to guide our actions using physical measurements before applying financial ones. This applies to all organizations: for-profit, non-profit, and government. Because this turns expansionary economic thinking upside down, Compression is primarily a human challenge.☜FFB597

Compression "Technomics" »Compression "Technomics"Compression "Technomics"☜If we are to improve quality of life while drastically cutting resource use and its unintended consequences, the decision-making methodologies of working organizations have to emphasize this. It cannot be a side issue, nice when we get around to it. ☜FFB597

Thermodynamic Economics and Energy »Thermodynamic Economics and EnergyThermodynamic Economics and Energy☜An industrial society needs lots of energy, even if waste isnt profligate. Abundant fuels led to emphasizing labor productivity, substituting machines for human mental labor as well as physical, but even computers require electricity. Doing more with less depends on physical energy economics.☜FFB597

More dispersed sources of energy take more energy to obtain »More dispersed sources of energy take more energy to obtainMore dispersed sources of energy take more energy to obtain☜Basic physics: No matter what technology is used, lower grade fuels in more remote locations need more energy to reach and to refine. Most alternatives to fossil fuels are not high-density sources or high energy yield processes.☜FFB597

Test for the viability of a source of energy »Test for the viability of a source of energyTest for the viability of a source of energy☜The minimal test is whether a source can yield more energy at points where it is used than is required to get it and get it to the point of use. Obviously the bigger this yield, the preferable the source. Yield is bigger if nature has already concentrated a lot of energy where it can be obtained.☜59C6EF
