''Greenhouse Solutions with Sustainable Energy'' is a 2007 book by Australian academic Mark Diesendorf. The book puts forward a set of policies and strategies for implementing the most promising clean energy technologies by all spheres of government, business and community organisations. ''Greenhouse Solutions with Sustainable Energy'' suggests that a mix of efficient energy use, renewable energy sources and natural gas (as a transitional fuel) offers a clean and feasible energy future for Australia.〔UNSW Press. (: Greenhouse Solutions with Sustainable Energy )〕 ==Structure and themes== The book is a comprehensive guide to sustainable energy systems〔( Greenhouse Solutions with Sustainable Energy: Review by Patrick O'Neill ) ''Chain Reaction 100'', August 2007.〕 and is structured in three sections: *Introduction to the basic concepts and latest scientific evidence regarding global warming. *Assessment of energy technologies, including coal, nuclear and more sustainable alternatives. *Discussion of policies and strategies needed to overcome the non-technical barriers to renewable energies and energy efficiency.〔(Scientific approach to an emotional – and political – issue ) ''ECOS'', June–July 2007, p.31.〕 Diesendorf argues that: *Ecologically sustainable energy technologies based on energy efficiency, renewable energy and natural gas are commercially available today, and that their implementation could halve Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions within a few decades. *To implement these technologies, new policies must be developed and implemented by all three levels of government. *The main barriers are neither technical nor economic, but rather our social institutions and the political power of the big greenhouse gas emitting industries: coal, oil, aluminium, cement and motor vehicles.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Greenhouse Solutions with Sustainable Energy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
