The most pressing technological problem facing the world is uncoupling the provision of energy from the production of carbon dioxide. Developed countries no longer need to increase their energy use in order to increase the size of their economies, but developing countries do. And yet to add more carbon dioxide to the Earth's atmosphere is to increase inexorably the chances of climatic chaos.The series of articles covers virtually all renewable energy technologies, from solar over wind to bioenergy and biofuels, to nuclear and wave. The texts look at fuel cells and hydrogen as well. Moreover, important questions about investment, policy and politics are addressed. Crucially, articles about the complexities of carbon dioxide emissions and global warming take a central place in the collection.
To highlight this issue Nature is assembling a suite of feature articles and associated material which will outline the promises and, where necessary, the pitfalls of new energy technologies. From mainstream possibilities like the expansion of nuclear power to more offbeat subjects such as microbial fuel cells and schemes for combining biofuel with fertiliser manufacture, this regularly updated Nature web focus will provide a comprehensive overview of the energy landscape.
