Biomass Energies

Mehr zum Buch

The exploration of biomass energy is framed within the broader context of renewable energies, particularly as a response to the 1973 oil crisis. The author reflects on the disparity between wealthy nations' reliance on fossil fuels and the poorer regions' dependence on biomass, which often leads to environmental and social challenges. Critical analysis reveals that the optimistic portrayal of renewable resources may not align with reality. The book emphasizes the need for a balanced understanding of biomass's potential and the responsibilities of scientists in addressing these complex issues.
