This book presents the latest research findings in modern
technological developments based on synthetic chemicals that are
highly toxic to the human environment. Unlike the majority of books
on appropriate technology, this book does not stop at questioning
fundamental issues of current technological development modus
operandi. Instead, it offers simple and practical solutions
identifying the roots of problems currently being faced by the
society. Various types of appropriate energy technologies suitable
for cooking, heating, lighting, transportation, and industrial
usage are presented. Pathways of conventional fossil fuel based
technologies including their impacts to humans and the environment
is illustrated. A detailed analysis of the problems of synthetic
fuels and benefits in using nature based resources are also
catalogued. For the first time, the newly established revolutionary
concept of the direct use of crude oil in a jet engine, is
presented. The role of current technology development in global
environmental perspectives are discussed.
