Field
of Mars Environmental Education Centre,
In
our first talk event for 2014, Dr Mark Diesendorf returns to discuss
his new book Sustainable
Energy Solutions for Climate Change. Dr
Diesendorf is Associate
Professor and Deputy Director of the Institute of Environmental
Studies, UNSW.
The
publishers, describe his new book as "a call to action on
climate change, filled with clear and detailed information on the
strategies we need to adopt to ensure a sustainable future for the
planet. Unlike other books on the subject, it brings together both
the technology and policy issues to provide a truly interdisciplinary
approach."
"Mark
Diesendorf provides a guide to our future energy options, outlining
the enormous recent changes in the energy sector in Australia and
internationally. Diesendorf argues that we now have the technologies
needed to transform our fossil-fuel based energy systems into an
ecologically sustainable one, based on the efficient use of renewable
energy. All we need is the political will to do so."
