Beschreibung

Renewable Policy Impact explores the critical role of government incentives in driving the adoption of green technology and achieving sustainable development goals. It examines how different policy designs, such as feed-in tariffs and renewable portfolio standards, impact technological innovation and environmental outcomes.

The book highlights that while well-crafted government incentives can accelerate the use of green technologies, their success depends on understanding market dynamics, technological readiness, and ensuring policy coherence. For example, the book points out that poorly designed incentives can lead to wasted resources and market distortions, hindering progress toward a sustainable future.

The book takes a comprehensive approach, reviewing the history of renewable energy support and assessing the effectiveness of various policy instruments using empirical evidence. It delves into the economic consequences, including job creation and energy prices, and analyzes the impact on greenhouse gas emissions.

The book is structured to build understanding, starting with fundamental concepts and progressing through specific policy instruments to broader impacts.

The book emphasizes the dynamic interactions between policy, technology, and markets, offering a nuanced perspective valuable to policymakers, academics, and industry professionals. It provides practical recommendations for maximizing the effectiveness of renewable energy incentives and fostering a more informed dialogue about energy security and climate change mitigation.

Baikonur Man - Space Science...

Barry L. Stoddard

Against the backdrop of the late Cold War, a tiny American start-up company forged a secret deal to place American scientific payloads aboard the Soviet space station MIR. Born out of sheer desperation after the Challenger explosion and grounding of the United States space shuttle program, the agreement was negotiated and approved behind the backs of NASA and Congress, with the help of United States government officials inside the Commerce and Defense departments. 
 
 
 
On a cold gray morning in February 1988, the company founder met with three graduate students and their professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to put his plans into action. Baikonur Man, written by one of those students, recounts the subsequent five-year saga of how science, comradery, hardship, drama, and occasional lunacy led to the first American experiments and payloads to fly on Russian rockets.

Nature & Culture - A change...

Eco-Philosophy The Council for

Dalai Lama (2000) believes that seeking happiness "lies in our nature": The desire or need to be happy knows no bounds. It is something that lies in our nature. As such, it needs no grounds and it is justified by the simple fact that it is something we rightly want out of our nature. One has also asked if happiness is as important in all cultures. The answer is that happiness is at the top of the wish-list in every country; It is more important than wealth and to come to heaven, and as important as love (Diener and Biswas-Diener, 2008)...what makes us richer has been costly. The wealth, or what has been the prerequisite for wealth, has reduced a quieter life, close and stable relationships, we are moving apart. A materialistic lifestyle has a negative connection with happiness (Hellevik, 2003). NEF (2016) has calculated values on Happy Planet Index for 140 countries. Highest ranks Costa Rica and a number of other countries in Latin America. The population of Costa Rica has high values for happiness and longevity, and they have low values of ecological footprints. Norway has very high values of happiness and longevity, but also of footprints. In total, Norway is ranked twelfth and therefore highest among European countries, but closely followed by Albania. The United Kingdom is at thirty-fourth place, Canada number eighty-five and the United States number 108.

Follow the Science? - But be...

David Galloway, Alastair Noble

This book comes from two authors with scientific backgrounds. It recognises the huge advances made through science and their beneficial impact on society. However, it also expresses concern that the essentially tentative nature of scientific conclusions is being replaced by a growing tendency to accord to science the last word on a range of subjects. While the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic of 2020 has shown some of the uncertainties associated with scientific research, this book demonstrates that these become more apparent in such fundamental areas as the origin of both life and the universe, as well as the abiding mystery of mind and consciousness. The authors argue persuasively that we should recognise the limitations of science as well as its unquestionable strength.  
David Galloway MD DSc was a Consultant Surgeon and is currently Honorary Professor of Surgery at the University of Glasgow, Scotland. He was, until recently, the President of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in Glasgow.  
Alastair Noble PhD spent most of his career in science education and educational management and was latterly the Field Officer for School Leaders Scotland. Both are committed Christians.
