IAP 2001 Activity

Sustainable Energy, An Overview Michael W. Golay Mon Jan 8 thru Fri Jan 12, 11am-12:00pm, 24-121 No enrollment limit, no advance sign up Participants requested to attend all sessions (non-series) Energy, the environment and society are aspects of a complex system that must be managed carefully so that society's needs are met in a way that is environmentally sustainable. Reasonable persons disagree on how this might be done. The course, Sustainable Energy (1.181J, 2.65J, 3.564J, 10.391J, 11.371J, 22.811J, ESD.166J) examines these issues in considerable interdisciplinary depth. This activity's goal is to provide a brief introduction to the same material for those unable to take the full course. Topics include energy demand trends and factors, available and conceivable energy technologies, and what people want. Activity includes considerable classroom discussion.
