Recently, we featured a thought piece by Adam Siegel called "Beware Silver Bullet Thinking". For those who haven't read the piece yet, I'd highly recommend you check it out. What Adam gets through in the crux of his piece is that there is a tendency as humans to try and take a simplistic view of big issues like climate. There is no one fuel, one technology, or one fix that is going to get us out of this one. The good news is: there are lots of solutions that can get us out of this mess, and many of them readily available today.
Technology, while not a cure all that many proport it to be, certainly is part of the equation. For someone coming to learn more about the climate change technology, it might seem daunting to learn all about the different approaches we can take.
Well, thankfully the people at the Pew Center for Global Climate Change have come up with a helpful online guide called "Climate Techbook". It breaks down the different technologies available by industry sector, and discusses how each plays a part in reducing or eliminating greenhouse gas emissions. It gives in depth information, but in layman's terms. Whether you're planning policy or a term paper, this will be a cool resource to check out!
