Global warming is described as a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth’s atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect. It has acquired the position of one of the most complex issues being encountered by world leaders. Therefore, it calls for significant concern from numerous modern societies, power and energy engineers, scholars, researchers and stakeholders. The consensus in the past century regarding anthropogenically induced global warming, has recently been questioned by a rising number of climate change panelists. Irrespective of the uncertainty of climate models, humankind needs to continuously struggle towards decreasing the amount of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere for the conservation of natural resources and living organisms by presenting new advanced methods on alternative fuels and other related technologies. This book thoroughly addresses the fundamentals on the origin of global warming and associated technologies which can be used to decrease human impact on climate change as well as presents innovative strategies which activists and practitioners should adopt. This book is a collective effort of various authors compiled in a chronological and simple manner in order to strike the correct balance between breadth and depth of coverage of several topics.
