  • More about Our Climate and the Energy Problem: How our Energy Needs can be Covered in a Climate-Friendly Way


Humanity's energy needs are largely met in harmful ways to the climate, but solar energy is an alternative that can satisfy our needs thousands of times over. However, it is far too little used due to economic reasons. This book discusses the energy converters that can be used to make solar energy available and suggests that our energy problem could be solved with global use of solar energy, stabilizing the climate in time.

The changes in our climate, their causes, and their consequences are covered in this essential. The majority of the time, humanity's energy requirements are met in ways that are detrimental to the environment. Solar energy, on the other hand, would meet our needs thousands of times over. However, for economic reasons, this option is far too underutilized. The energy converters that can be used to make solar energy available are then discussed in this chapter. Some other modern energy sources, such as nuclear power, are either inadequate, still utopian, or otherwise environmentally harmful. An outlook shows that our energy problem could easily be solved with economic reason by global use of solar energy. The climate could thus still be stabilized in time.

This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Unser Klima und das Energieproblem by Klaus Stierstadt, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.
