أنظمة الطاقة ضرورة من ضروريَّات الحياة في مجتمعاتنا المعاصرة. وتشمل أنظمة الطاقة استغلال الوقود الأولي، وتحويله، ونقله إلى نقاط الاستخدام. لكن هذا الوقود يكون في الكثير من الأحيان وقوداً أحفوريـاً؛ يُلحِق ضرراً جسيماً بالبيئة. ولهذا السبب صار تغيير أنظمة الطاقة الحالية أمراً حتميـاً إذا ما أردنا حماية كوكبنا. في هذا الكتاب، يأخذنا نِك جينكنز في رحلةٍ نستكشف خلالَها الجهود التي بذلها البشر في استغلال موارد الوقود الأحفوري. ويناقش الكتاب أيضاً آثار استخدامنا المتزايد للطاقة، والتغييرات الجذرية في تكنولوجيا الوقود، الضروريَّة لمواصلة توفير إمدادات الطاقة على نحو مستدام. ويناقش أيضاً تأثير التحوُّل إلى أنظمة طاقة منخفضة الانبعاثات الكربونية وصديقة للبيئة، قائمة على العديد من مصادر الطاقة المتجدِّدة المختلفة.

Despite their cultural influence, the grand narrative of the dinosaur story is rarely told. Most of us have heard of Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus, but these two dinosaurs lived more than eighty million years apart—a greater span of time than the entire post-T. rex history of the planet. Furthermore, we often know even less about the environments these animals lived in. The Shortest History of the Dinosaurs tells the full story, a 230-million-year epic of small beginnings, spectacular golden periods, and eventual global domination.

This audiobook is more than just a guide—it’s your ticket to understanding and appreciating the amazing world of rocks, gems, and minerals.
