This volume comes at an important time, as countries look seriously toward alternative forms of energy and the problems that will result if they do not. The focus of this informative book is on Earth energy resources, such as renewable power from water, ocean energy, solar energy, wind energy, and biofuels, as well as nonrenewable sources.
Coverage includes:
• The types of energy resources and the natural mechanisms in the earth that have allowed them to form
• Why some resources are renewable and others are not.
