Resilience Science – Navigating the surprises of the anthropocene

http://rs.resalliance.org/

The Resilience Science weblog is operated by Garry Peterson, a professor at the Stockholm Resilience Centre at Stockholm University in Sweden. It was started in early 2005 by Garry Peterson and Marco Janssen as an experiment to communicate recent work by and of interest to those interested in resilience in social ecological systems.

Currently its contributors are members of Resilience Alliance (RA), a research network of scientists and practitioners from many disciplines who collaborate to explore the dynamics of social-ecological systems. Key RA concepts include resilience, the adaptive cycle, and panarchy. The RA works to develop a practical theoretical foundation for a sustainable civilization.

Conversations with History: Energy Security and the Remaking of the Modern World with Daniel Yergin

Published on Dec 1, 2011 by UCtelevision

Conversations host Harry Kreisler welcomes Daniel Yergin for a discussion of his new book, “The Quest.” Tracing his intellectual odyssey, Yergin reflects on the challenges of writing a comprehensive account of energy, and he highlights the importance of storytelling in crafting a powerful narrative. He then analyzes the role of creativity, technology, markets, and geopolitics in shaping the unfolding story of energy. The conversation moves on to three important questions: whether there will be enough energy to meet the world’s demands, whether the security of the energy system will be insured, and what will be the future mix of energy sources.

The Great Transition: From Fossil Fuels to Renewable Energy

The Great Transition, Part I: From Fossil Fuels to Renewable Energy
Lester R. Brown
Earth Policy Release
Plan B Update
October 25, 2012
The great energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources of energy is under way. As fossil fuel prices rise, as oil insecurity deepens, and as concerns about pollution and climate instability cast a shadow over the future of coal, a new world energy economy is emerging. The old energy economy, fueled by oil, coal, and natural gas, is being replaced with an economy powered by wind, solar, and geothermal energy. The Earth’s renewable energy resources are vast and available to be tapped through visionary initiatives. Our civilization needs to embrace renewable energy on a scale and at a pace we’ve never seen before…..(more).
