Energy and Climate Change: An Introduction to Geological Controls,
Interventions and Mitigations examines the Earth system science
context of the formation and use of fossil fuel resources, and the
implications for climate change. It also examines the historical
and economic trends of fossil fuel usage and the ways in which
these have begun to affect the natural system (i.e., the start of
the Anthropocene). Finally, the book examines the effects we might
expect in the future looking at evidence from the "deep time" past,
and looks at ways to mitigate climate change by using negative
emissions technology (e.g. bioenergy and carbon capture and
storage, BECCS), but also by adapting to perhaps a higher than "two
degree world," particularly in the most vulnerable, developing
countries. Energy and Climate Change is an essential resource for
geoscientists, climate scientists, environmental scientists, and
students; as well as policy makers, energy professionals, energy
statisticians, energy historians and economists.
