Climate Change Complementarity: the US Government

Posted on January 2, 2019 by climatechangefork

Oxford Dictionaries define complementarity in the following way: A relationship or situation in which two or more different things improve or emphasize each other’s qualities. ‘a culture based on the complementarity of men and women’ Given how broad this definition … Continue reading →

Vulnerabilities: Water Stress

Posted on May 1, 2018 by climatechangefork

Figure 1 in last week’s blog listed key impacts of climate change as a function of increasing global temperature relative to the average temperature between 1980 and 1999. Based on NASA measurements (Figure 2 in the same blog), we have … Continue reading →

Vulnerabilities: Local Environmental Displacements

Posted on April 10, 2018 by climatechangefork

Last week’s blog looked at one of the biggest vulnerabilities that anthropogenic climate change has already produced: the dislocation of people from land that is no longer inhabitable. The dislocated people either try to move to safer locations within their … Continue reading →

Vulnerabilities

Posted on March 27, 2018 by climatechangefork

My last five blogs (starting on February 20, 2018) have focused on some key indicators of the global energy transition as they relate to climate change and the IPAT identity. I examined the 12 most populous countries, which together represent … Continue reading →

Energy Transition: Regional Impacts and Highlights

Posted on March 20, 2018 by climatechangefork

I started this series (February 20, 2018) by introducing energy-related indicators for the ten most populous countries (with the addition of two African countries that are projected to join those ranks by 2040). I aim to use these indicators as … Continue reading →

Fossil Fuel Preferences and BP’s Energy Outlook

Posted on March 13, 2018 by climatechangefork

I started this series on February 20, 2018 to explore the IPAT identity. The last term within that identity that I have yet to cover includes the nature of the fossil fuels used. The popular perception is that use of … Continue reading →

Electricity Generation

Posted on March 6, 2018 by climatechangefork

This week, I’m looking at the role of electricity in the ongoing global energy transition. Dieter Helm argued (see the February 13, 2018 blog about his book, Burn Out) that our increased usage of electricity is an indicator of our … Continue reading →

Primary Energy

Posted on February 27, 2018 by climatechangefork

As promised, this blog and the next (barring unforeseen circumstances) will focus on some key indicators of the global energy transition – specifically with regard to climate change and the IPAT identity. I am continuing my study of the same … Continue reading →

Markers for the Global Energy Transition

Posted on February 20, 2018 by climatechangefork

Last week I talked about Dieter Helm’s book, where he portrayed a future in which oil companies are going broke and fossil fuel prices are collapsing due to their practically infinite supply (via fracking and horizontal drilling). Growing awareness of … Continue reading →

Long-term Solutions: Energy

Posted on November 7, 2017 by climatechangefork

The last two blogs focused on the Netherlands’ leading role in showing the rest of the world strategies for living on an increasingly inhospitable planet, where the terrain is becoming uninhabitable for both humans and agricultural crops and the oceans … Continue reading →
