Описание: The new green industrial revolution is driven by a variety of global environmental concerns. In some regions, it is spurred by the scarcity of cheap affordable renewable energy that will also lead to a reduced reliance on fossil fuel in the production of power. In others, it is driven by a need to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from power generation. This book provides a comprehensive review of the most popular green "disruptive" technologies in energy production as well as their economic impact. In addition, the book includes a multitude of international case studies where these technologies are currently deployed and their economic impact on the region.
Clearly explains the scientific, engineering, technological, and economics driving the Green Revolution in power generation
A guide to technologies such as renewable energy, smart green grids, and emission control technologies
Packed with international case studies that provides real-world examples of how these technologies are currently being deployed around the world
Explains the economic impact which these new technologies will play in building global sustainability

Campus leaders describe how community colleges, publicly funded universities, and private liberal arts colleges across America are integrating sustainability into curriculum, policies, and programs.
In colleges and universities across the United States, students, faculty, and staff are forging new paths to sustainability. From private liberal arts colleges to major research institutions to community colleges, sustainability concerns are being integrated into curricula, policies, and programs. New divisions, degree programs, and courses of study cross traditional disciplinary boundaries; Sustainability Councils become part of campus governance; and new sustainability issues link to historic social and educational missions. In this book, leaders from twenty-four colleges and universities offer their stories of institutional and personal transformation.
These stories document both the power of leadership -- whether by college presidents, faculty, staff, or student activists -- and the potential for institutions to redefine themselves. Chapters recount, among other things, how inclusive campus governance helped mobilize students at the University of South Carolina; how a course at the Menominee Nation's tribal college linked sustainability and traditional knowledge; how the president of Furman University convinced a conservative campus community to make sustainability a strategic priority; how students at San Diego State University built sustainability into future governance while financing a LEED platinum-certified student center; and how sustainability transformed pedagogy in a lecture class at Penn State. As this book makes clear, there are many paths to sustainability in higher education. These stories offer a snapshot of what has been accomplished and a roadmap to what is possible.

Описание: In contrast to the linear "take-make-dispose" model of resource consumption, a new industrial model is proposed in the form of a circular economy. This model aims to optimize the use of resources and to reduce or eliminate waste, and is based on re-use, repair, ecodesign, industrial ecology, sustainable supply and responsible consumption.

Описание: This book bringstogether leading experts to assess how and whether the Nazis were successful infostering collaboration to secure the resources they required during World WarII. These studies of the occupation regimes in Norway and Western Europe revealthat the Nazis developed highly sophisticated instruments of exploitationbeyond oppression and looting. The authors highlight that in comparison to theheavy manufacturing industries of Western Europe, Norway could provide many rawmaterials that the German war machine desperately needed, such as aluminium,nickel, molybdenum and fish. These chapters demonstrate that the Nazis providedincentives to foster economic collaboration, hoping that these would make everymine, factory and smelter produce at its highest level of capacity. All readerswill learn about the unique part of Norwegian economic collaboration duringthis period and discover the rich context of economic collaboration acrossEurope during World War II.
