As the US population increases, the need for energy sources such as electricity, petroleum and industrial processes and the resulting emissions are growing at an alarming rate. Emissions that increase the rate of global warming include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and other greenhouse gases. This book examines current challenges encountered in attempting to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels as well as developing alternative methods of producing energy.
