Immediate action required »
Immediate action required
Immediate action required☜The scale and likelihood of the anticipatable consequences of climate change demand immediate action on climate change by society. Humanity should act immediately to avoid or minimise the climate changes and impacts that are avoidable, and prepare to adapt to those that are not.☜59C6EF

Energy Return on Investment (EROI) for different energy sources? »
Energy Return on Investment (EROI) for different energy sources?
Energy Return on Investment (EROI) for different energy sources?☜EROI is is the ratio of the amount of usable energy acquired from a particular energy resource to the amount of energy expended to obtain that energy resource—and signals the net energy available to do useful work. Anything with a EROI ratio less than one is an energy sink.☜FFB597

Is structural change on this scale feasible within the time available?
Is structural change on this scale feasible within the time available?☜Is there sufficient time, are there sufficient investment resources, and is the technology capable of accomplishing a rapid structural transition from an energy system dependent on fossil fuels to an energy system grounded on non-fossil fuels and renewables?☜FFB597

Use waste heat to generate electricity »
Use waste heat to generate electricity
Use waste heat to generate electricity☜Energy lost from hot engines and power plants could be converted into electricity by thermoelectric devices, thereby increasing the amount of useful power we get for a given amount of fuel.☜9FDEF6
●
High voltage direct current grids »
High voltage direct current grids
High voltage direct current grids☜Renewable energy can satisfy the energy needs of the human population once we have created High Voltage Direct Current grids which can efficiently transport electricity generated from renewables over long distances. This means that the irregularities of the renewable supply can be smoothed out. ☜9FDEF6

Peak Oil »
Peak Oil
Peak Oil☜The likelihood is that we are at or approaching the downside of the oil production curve. We rely on oil for much of our energy production, as well as being used throughout our system of industrial production. How can our society adapt to both of these challenges simultaneously?☜FFFACD
