"Energy and Climate Change discusses our current energy systems, more sustainable alternatives, and why energy use is having a detrimental effect on the environment, Energy is placed at the centre of a discussion covering the global environment, technology and civilisation. Problem solving is a central tool and is approached through the use of Fermi-like problems, where the reader is encouraged to explore relevant issues through simple numeric problem solving."--Jacket.
