More than 90 percent of the word's energy comes from burning fossil fuels, placing enormous pressure on the Earth's resources. As the world's population continues to grow, so does the demand for energy. This book examines energy use today, its impact on our environment, and current and future renewable energy sources that may help solve the growing energy crisis.
