,PURPOSE AND PERSPECTIVE OF THE CHAPTER RI RI RI RI RI




The purpose of this chapter is to examine the fundamental concepts of energy. As discussed i
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


n the chapter energy is a basic concept in all science and engineering disciplines. The concep
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


t of energy conservation has also been explained in the chapter. Efforts of energy conservati
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


on usually concentrate on either change to technology or lifestyle. Increased emphasis on en
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


ergy conservation is explained with the help of some convincing arguments.
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri




Students should learn that the use of our energy resources is one of the major factors affecti
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


ng the environment. Using energy resources may impact the environment, but so can extracti
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


ng those resources, such as through deforestation, oil spillage, forest fires, and destruction of
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


the natural landscape and vegetation. Later in the chapter, the worldwide consumption of en
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


ergy is explained with the help of graphs. Recall from the beginning of this chapter that energ
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


y is not an end in itself but is valued for what we can do with it. The end uses of energy are t

al.
Students should learn about energy resources, their limitations, and their uses. Students mus
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


t know how large each energy resource is and how long it will last. Both of these questions a

xtraction of resources, future fuel prices, and consumption growth rates. Understanding energy

use means also understanding the consequences of its use. This chapter will introduce you t
Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri Ri


o the science of energy use and energy technology.
