Engineering response to global climate change

Description:

Rather than presenting yet another analysis and warning of the perceived warming of the Earth's climate, this new book, written by leading scientists and engineers, actually offers some real solutions to the problem. From new ways to curtail energy consumption and reduce carbon dioxide emissions to actual proposals for sea walls and climate-altering atmospheric technologies, this book offers professionals and students exciting new conceptual tools for correcting and alleviating the expected social and environmental threats from global warming.
