Our society is consuming energy at an alarming rate as trends in energy consumption continue to rise. Jones and Mayfield explore the creation and history of fossil fuels, their impact on the environment, and how they have become critical to our society. They warn that continuing fuel-usage patterns could permanently damage our environment. Jones and Mayfield also outline how the adoption of sustainable biofuels will be key to our future energy stability. They discuss a number of renewable energy options, and then discuss different biofuel feedstocks and their potential as replacements for petroleum-based products. This book emphasizes the importance of continued scientific, agricultural, and engineering development, while outlining the political and environmental challenges that are coupled with a complete shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy and biomass. Our Energy Future is an excellent, accessible resource for undergraduate students studying biofuels and bioenergy."--Provided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Biomass energy|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85014231|vTextbooks.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001753 650 0 Biomass energy|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85014231|xEnvironmental aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005383|vTextbooks.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001753 650 0 Renewable energy sources|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85112837|vTextbooks.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001753 650 0 Fossil fuels|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85051023|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005024|vTextbooks.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001753 650 0 Fossil fuels|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85051023|xEnvironmental aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005383 650 7 Biomass energy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/832532 650 7 Biomass energy|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/832537 650 7 Renewable energy sources.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1094570 650 7 Fossil fuels.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/933141 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Fossil fuels|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/933147 655 0 Electronic book. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Textbooks.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423863 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 Textbooks.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026191 700 1 Mayfield, Stephen P.,|d1955-|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2015080446|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aJones, Carla S., 1981-|tOur energy future.|dOakland, California : University of California Press, [2016]|z9780520278776|w(DLC) 2015022634 |w(OCoLC)911920943 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1107093|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
