Sustainability Science and Technology: An Introduction explains the root causes of global failures in natural and human systems, as well as the most readily available technological solutions. The book dispels risky scientific and technological ideas that further complicate the current environmental and socioeconomic predicaments. It also bridges gaps among scientific and technological fields and systematically translates current findings for a wide technical and public audience.
Written at a level accessible to all, the story is told one bite-sized chapter...

This book examines all facets of energy use, energy sources, and sustainable energy. It clearly explains the need for an integrated engineering approach to sustainable energies. The emphasis is on coupling and hybridizing systems to implement resilient and efficient alternatives to existing energy systems. It discusses current energy systems, both sustainable as well as those that claim to be sustainable. This book is a result of a collaborative work of many contributors from different backgrounds all focused on a particular approach to better integrate all technologies in a set of...
