2. 2 CH1: What Goes Up Must Come Down Our planet and the immediate danger The sources of global warming Solution: All must be reduced! The solution is easy to describe yet difficult to put in practice

3. 3 CH2: Where Our Energy Comes from and Where It Goes The largest source of global warming is the production of energy from fossil fuels: Coal, Oil, Natural Gas (86.5% of primary energy) Solution: substitute with low-CO 2 -energy-source Oil is the largest source of energy Oil produces 30% less CO 2 that coal per unit/energy

4. 4 CH2. Cont. Making Renewable Energy Affordable: need to develop and build cos-effective renewable-energy systems (from natural sources) 1. While carbon-based energy gets more expensive over time, renewable energy gets cheaper 2. Need to build infrastructure, and the fuel is free! (sun, wind...), no scarcity

5. 5 3. World commitment and the advantage of economies of scale (R&D and higher demand)

6. 6 CH3: Electricity From The Sun CH4: Harvesting The Wind CH5: Soaking Up Geothermal Energy

7. 7 CH6: Growing Fuel Biomass Energy (plant material and animal waste): a source of energy that could reduce CO 2 from burning energy.

8. 8 CH7: Carbon Capture And Sequestration CCS: in theory, to capture all of the CO2. In reality?

9. 9 CH8: The Nuclear Option economic and political problems Safety concerns

10. 10 CH9: Forests CH10: Soil Ch11: Population Ch13: The Super Grid

11. 11 CH12: Less is More Efficiency: The Other Renewable Resource Cost savings and CO2 reductions Use more efficient motors, change method of production, optimize system of pumps and pipes (modern), cost-reducing technologies

12. 12 CH14: Changing The Way We Think A part of the challenge we face in solving the climate crisis stems from the way we think about it Why we fail to realize the threat? Global warming is described as the greatest market failuer in history Information
