The New Energy Crisis

Jean-Marie Chevalier and Patrice Geoffron

Chapter 1 in The New Energy Crisis, 2013, pp 1-52 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract When current world energy consumption is considered from the perspective of long-term historical trends, it appears that the last 150 years have been an exceptional but unsustainable period: exceptional in terms of the improvement of comfort and standards of living; unsustainable in terms of the climate change which has resulted. Let us take a brief look at the past.
