Emissions of CO2 have come to be regarded as the main factor in
climate change in recent years, and how to control them has become
a pressing issue. The problem cannot simply be labeled a
technological one, however, because it is deeply involved with
social and economic issues. Since 2008, the Global Center of
Excellence (COE) program titled Energy Science in the Age of Global
Warming Toward a CO2 Zero-Emission Energy System has been held at
Kyoto University, Japan. The program aims to establish an
international education and research platform to foster educators,
researchers, and policy makers who can develop technologies and
propose policies toward a zero-emission society by the year 2100.
Setting out a zero-emission technology roadmap, Global COE promotes
socioeconomic studies of energy, the study of new technologies for
renewable energies, and research in advanced nuclear energy. A
compilation of the lectures and presentations from the first
symposium of Global COE held at Kyoto University, this book is
intended to provide the impetus for the establishment of low carbon
energy science to bring about harmony between mankind and the
environment."
