Among its many aspects is the need for energy transitions worldwide, as sustainable energy infrastructure must be rapidly created if the world is to forestall climate catastrophe. Methods for measuring CO2 concentration and other factors producing climate change will be critical to managing this transition and assessing its early impacts. Measuring Climate Change to Inform Energy Transitions proposes a method for measuring sinusoidal gradients of increasing temperatures and CO2 concentration in order to determine the ongoing impact of global warming and make recommendations. This method will be critical in informing key decisions as the energy transition proceeds. It is a must-read for academic, professional, and policy stakeholders looking to meet these challenges head-on. Readers will also find: Concrete models and mechanisms for effecting energy transition Detailed discussion of topics including vegetative sinks for carbon capture, power reforms from coal, carbon footprint of internal combustion engines, skills required for green jobs and many more Examples and case studies to supplement quantitative analyses This book is ideal for professionals, undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers in the energy, environmental, government, and engineering fields. 4aEnvironmental Analysis991454 4aCarbon Capture & Storage991455 4aMathematical Modeling99145600aFossil fuel; renewable energy; clean energy technology; global warming; greenhouse gas; emission of CO2; coal; heat wave; coastal flood; tropical cyclone; infrastructure; clean electricity; zero emission; sinusoidal gradient; carbon footprint08iPrinted edition:z978139420731240uhttps://doi.org/10.1002/9781394207343aWiley Online Library40uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/showBook?doi=10.1002%2F9781394207343aWiley Online Library423Cover Imageuhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/cms/asset/89883bc8-96ba-44f9-8f3f-87b4fcd56671/9781394207343.cover.gifaWiley Online Library c66960d66960
