Modern energy systems give rise to the bulk of greenhouse gases and
other air pollutants which threaten the environment. Energy has
therefore become a central focus of debates on sustainable
development. This book explains the fundamental aspects of the
energy issue and suggests ways to achieve a more sustainable energy
future. A leading team of writers describes the importance of
energy within the sustainable development debate and outlines the
historical and current patterns of energy use in Australia and
internationally. The book also assesses the scope for energy
conservation, explores the potential for renewable sources of
energy, and analyses policy options for promoting more sustainable
patterns of energy use. Finally it surveys the possibilities for
energy reform in Australia. Sustainable Energy Systems presents the
broad spectrum of debate to non-experts for the first time. It
emphasises the urgent need to reform patterns of energy use in
Australia and around the world if we are to live in an ecologically
sustainable and humanly desirable future.
