Modern societies require energy systems to provide energy for cooking, heating, transport, and materials processing, as well as for electricity generation.

Energy systems include the primary fuel, its conversion, and transport to the point of use. In many cases this primary fuel is still a fossil fuel, a one-use resource derived from a finite supply within our planet, causing considerable damage to the environment. After 300 years of increasing reliance on fossil fuels, particularly coal, it is becoming ever clearer that the present energy systems need to change.

In this Very Short Introduction, Nick Jenkins explores our historic investment in the exploitation of fossil energy resources and their current importance, and discusses the implications of our increasing rate of energy use.

He considers the widespread acceptance by scientists and policy makers that our energy systems must reduce emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases, and looks forward to the radical changes in fuel technology that will be necessary to continue to provide energy supplies in a sustainable manner, and extend access across the developing world.

This is not the first time I stumble on an audiobook with this narrater. I haven’t been able to finish them. His habit of excessive intonation for almost every word is annoying, distracting and difficult to get used to. It is so excessive that probably done on purpose. I am not the only one complaining in the reviews.

Extremely irritating voice distracting from the substance
