1. Energy and the Environment: A Global perspective Reza Toossi, CSULB 1Copyrights (c) 2008

2. Issues and Concerns Big questions How much longer petroleum will last? What are geopolitical, economical and the environmental impacts? Concerns Useful energy is being more scarce. Population increases at an exponential rate. Industrializations demands more and more energy. Environmental problems becomes more severe with increases in energy consumption. Limited resources can impact social, cultural, and economical aspects of our lives. Where are we going from here? 2

3. Over consumption The Problem 3

4. Energy 4

5. Sources Nonrenewable Fossil Fuel (Coal, Oil, Gas) Nuclear (Fission, Fusion) Geothermal Renewable Solar (Thermal, Photovoltaic) Wind Waves, Tides, Hydroelectric Biomass 5

6. Why Petroleum? Oil delivers more than 15 times the energy of an equal mass of dynamite, 700 times that of a bullet, and 100 times energy of laptop batteries One gallon of oil does as much work as 20 workers work 10 hours a day for an entire year It is the main ingredient for a variety of consumers products, including pharmaceutical, cosmetics, clothing, pesticides, lubricant, solvents, and …. It is CHEAP!!!!

20. The Greenhouse Effect 20

21. And if all that is not enough… 21

22. Ignoring it doesn’t make the problem go away 22

23. Environmental Consequences (Fossil Fuels) Global warming Ozone depletion Acid rain Poisons 23

24. Major Air Pollutants 24

25. Carbon Footprint 25 Average American household produces 150 pounds of CO 2 a day We can easily reduce it by half. Pounds of Carbon Dioxide One Gallon of Gasoline19.6 100 cubic feet of natural gas12 One ton of coal1.4-2.8 One kWh of electricity1.5

26. Environmental Consequences (Nuclear) Nuclear Waste (NIMBY) Nuclear Accidents Nuclear War Terrorism 26

27. Environmental Consequences (Renewable) Solar Wind Wave, Hydropower Biomass Geothermal 27

28. Ozone Depletion One chlorine or bromine molecule can destroy 100,000 ozone molecules, causing ozone to disappear much faster than nature can replace it. 28

29. Acid Rain Only a few marine species can survive when pH is smaller than 5. Health effects include respiratory complications, reduced immunity to infection, reduced visibility, and corrosion. Regional conflicts (US, Canada, Europe) 29

30. Indoor Air Pollution Average person stays 90% of his time indoors Energy conservancy projects have exacerbated this problem Common sources of indoor air pollution are: Cigarette and tobacco smoke Paints, lead and other construction material Stoves, refrigerators and other appliances cleaners and chemicals Pesticides Soil Drinking Water 30

31. Future Transportations 31

32. Hybrid, Electric, and Fuel Cells 32

33. Sun and Wind 33

34. Summary Energy will remain the most critical issue affecting the globe in the 21 st century. Energy Efficiency Alternative Resources Jobs Environmental Impacts 34
