Chapter 1 in Energy Efficiency, 2009, pp 7-12 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The author tells the story of how she was selected by Michigan State University in 1978 to conduct the first energy education outreach program in the United States. She describes the energy principals of resource efficiency, thermodynamics, and integrated energy production systems that have supported her efforts to help people control costs and overcome pollution in a fossil fuel driven energy society. She introduces the investment opportunities that exist to pay for energy infrastructure upgrades as well as lower energy costs and reduce emissions.
