The objective of this book is to help readers better understand the
links between fossil fuel, greenhouse gas, and climate change in a
clear, explanatory format. It avoids sensationalism and politics,
using plain language to explain the details of the science, how the
science works, and how we know what we know. It describes the
history of fossil fuels, why fossil fuel combustion products are a
problem, and what must be done to address the impacts on climate.
It provides details about a number of energy engineering solutions
to replace fossil fuels and technology called geoengineering that
can cool the planet and directly remove greenhouse gases from the
atmosphere. Some of these technologies can be implemented almost
immediately, and others may be applied in the future. Many young
people are pessimistic about the future and prepared to give up on
addressing climate change. The book strives to maintain hope
throughout that humanity can solve this and other environmental
problems. The climate crisis was caused by human engineering, and
human engineering can fix it. The goal is to produce informed
readers that can have responsible discussions with their political
leaders about implementing solutions to climate change.
