Sheehan Peter: THE IMPLICATIONS OF
CHINA'S RISING ENE

THE IMPLICATIONS OF CHINA'S RISING ENE

What if we don't need 'miracle technologies' to solve the climate problem? What if the technologies we need are already available? And what if we can use those existing technologies to ensure reliable electricity, heat supplies, and energy security? In a revised and updated edition of his award-winning climate bestseller, No Miracles Needed, the world's premier thinker on energy futures and one of the world's 100 most impactful people in the world in 2023, Mark Z. Jacobson reveals how nations, communities, and individuals can solve the climate crisis most effectively, while simultaneously eliminating air pollution and providing energy security. Mark explains how existing technologies can harness, store, and transmit energy from wind, water, and solar sources to ensure reliable electricity and heat supplies. It includes new, cutting-edge technologies, additional new real-life case studies about the solutions, and additional references. Written for everyone who cares about the future of our planet, this book advises individuals, policymakers, communities, and nations about what they can do to solve the problems identified, and the economic, health, and climate benefits of the solutions.

How Today's Technology Can Save Our Climate and Clean Our Air

Still No Miracles Needed

'Everyone should read this book' - George Monbiot 'A compelling read for anyone who cares about all lives on our planet' - Tanya Steele CBE, CEO of WWF UK In this extraordinary and hopeful book, leading environmentalist Tony Juniper CBE identifies the real problem at the heart of the climate and nature crises. From soil loss to wildfires, degraded rivers, mass migration and conflict, the environmental crisis is already here - and it's set to get much worse. While billionaires build remote bunkers and make plans for colonies on Mars, climate collapse impacts the most vulnerable among us first and hardest. But what this radical and ground-breaking book proves is that inequality isn't just about who suffers the consequences, it is the main obstacle blocking action - and it has been for decades. How can people lead good lives without ultimately hastening global collapse? The answer lies in fairness. We can't fight the climate and nature crises without addressing the ever-widening gaps between the rich and poor, the powerful and the weak. Drawing upon more than 40 years of experience in research, practical work, campaigning and advocacy, combined with interviews with globally renowned experts, in Just Earth Tony Juniper reveals the system shifts needed to achieve real, lasting change.

The Sustainability Handbook, Volume 4: The Body of Knowledge around Sustainability Transformation provides a comprehensive and holistic understanding of sustainability, bridging the gap between academic theory and business practices. Aimed at those who have established a mature Sustainability Portfolio Management approach, Volume 4 goes beyond the why of Substantial, Radical, and Disruptive Sustainable Innovation, exploring how to capture and use Sustainability Drivers and Requirements. This volume naturally bridges the gap between the innovative ideas discussed in Volumes 1, 2, and 3, and their practical implementation. Global climate change poses enormous environmental challenges, and the private sector must find new ways of doing business to align their practices with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the international community. Using numerous specific case studies and insights from industry leaders, this handbook shows how to strategically integrate sustainability into an organization, with extensive focus on policies, incentives, measures, operations, production, consumption and lifecycle management. Volume 4 focuses on embedding these innovations into organizational processes, capabilities, culture, and strategy. It ensures that sustainability is not just a visionary goal but a tangible, operational reality, guiding businesses through the complex journey of integrating sustainable practices into their core operations. This book will be ideal for researchers, students and businesspeople at all levels and sectors who need a conceptually structured framework to understand what environmental, social, and economic sustainability actually means in different contexts.

The Sustainability Handbook, Volume 4

An in-depth investigation into the growing industry of green technologies and the environmental, social, and political consequences of the mining it requires. In the fight against climate change, lithium's role in reducing emissions by powering green economies is a mixed blessing. Drawing on groundbreaking fieldwork in Chile, Nevada, and Portugal, Thea Riofrancos explores the environmental and social costs of the global race to expand lithium mining amid supply chain concerns. With haunting descriptions of vulnerable ecosystems, she examines how mining harms landscapes, provokes protest, takes centre stage in national politics, and links countries on the peripheries of the world economy to huge corporations, commodity markets, and powerful investors. Riofrancos traces the history of global extraction from colonial conquest to the 1970s energy crisis to the still-uncertain green future. While an unregulated mining boom could inflict irreversible harm, Riofrancos offers compelling ideas about how to harmonize climate action with social justice. Across the world's extractive frontiers, we encounter the most brutal aspects of capitalism - but also witness inspiring visions for our future planet.

This handbook on the "New" Space Economy (NSE) offers the first comprehensive analysis of the contemporary space economy. The "new" is characterized by commercialization, greater participation of the private sector, innovation, and increased engagement of national governments. Using multiple approaches, the volume conceptualizes the boundaries of an emerging field of inquiry, characterized by continuity and change and involving terrestrial and extraterrestrial activities. It covers the fundamental economic, institutional, and technological dynamics and assesses the socio-economic impact of the NSE. Largely a US and European phenomenon, the evolution of the NSE in other spacefaring nations such as China, India, Japan, and Russia is also examined. In The Oxford Handbook of the New Space Economy, chapters by both academics and practitioners systematically address the changing institutional arrangements, interactions between public and private actors, and the role of innovations and entrepreneurship. As constellations of satellites for earth observations, telecommunications, the internet, GPS, and other civilian applications tackle climate change and monitor natural disasters, the unsustainability of space activities due to orbital congestion and space debris is a reality. The 1967 UN Outer Space Treaty, which views space as a "global commons," needs revisiting to address regulatory challenges in space mining and other uses of extraterrestrial resources. This volume advances the state of knowledge on the dynamics of an emerging new space economy, identifies key stakeholders, and opens up future research areas for policymaking.

THE NEW

Die 17 Beiträge in diesem Band untersuchen Möglichkeiten für eine demokratische Erneuerung von Demokratien. Von der Bedeutung des (säkularen) 'Glaubens' bis zur Rückgewinnung der Gemeingüter zielt jeder Essay darauf ab, einen Samen zu pflanzen, der das Versprechen demokratischer Potentiale trägt. Mit Themen wie planetarer Wandel, KI und plurale Wissenssysteme wirkt das Buch als Inspiration, die zu unorthodoxen, mitfühlenden und experimentellen Ansätzen aufruft. Es ist eine Einladung, demokratische Zukünfte zu kultivieren, die ebenso vielfältig, resilient und lebendig sind, wie die Gesellschaften, denen sie zu dienen beabsichtigen.

Routledge Studies in Sustainability

This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the background, practice, potential and challenges associated with developing and using perceptual indicators for assessing sustainability.Sustainability Indicators (SIs) are usually described and portrayed as quantitative metrics that rest above the human realm of subjectivity, opinion and bias. Thus, they are the basis for objectively measuring progress towards the attainment of targets in sustainable development. Unlike the "hard" metrics described above, the way in which we experience the world and frame our personal decisions based on that experience, past and present, is founded on perceptions and these can be inherently subjective. This book argues that perception-based indicators are an important subset of SIs in assessing sustainability, environmental quality and well-being. The chapters draw upon examples such as the Corruption Perception Index (CPI) produced by Transparency International (TI), and a variety of happiness indices, amongst many others. The chapters in the book can be thought of as comprising two parts. The first section provides a broad review of the field of SIs, addressing the challenges involved in identifying, defining and populating SIs, especially for countries in the Global South. The second part of the book summarises the range of participatory approaches that have often been used to develop perception-based indicators of sustainability, along with their respective pros and cons.This book will be useful for students studying social sciences, economics, environmental studies, human geography, politics and international development. The book may also appeal to students taking courses in business studies.

World Scientific Series In Energy And Environmental Finance

This book provides a vital analysis of the global tourism and hospitality industry's vulnerability to external shocks and its path toward a more resilient and sustainable future. It argues for a fundamental shift in traditional models by exploring how various crises - from geopolitical conflicts to global pandemics - interact with and threaten the industry.

Bringing global crises into sharp focus, it explores how wars, pandemics, environmental risks, and energy challenges disrupt tourism - and how the industry adapts and recovers. From the Gaza conflict to the ecological pressures facing Hurghada, it demonstrates the wide-ranging factors that threaten the sector. Arguing for a fundamental shift in traditional models, it makes the case for a regenerative approach, highlighting innovation, sustainability, and collaboration as fundamental to building a more responsible and adaptable tourism sector.
