Download or read book When Trucks Stop Running written by A.J. Friedemann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In lively and engaging language, this book describes our dependence on freight transport and its vulnerability to diminishing supplies and high prices of oil. Ships, trucks, and trains are the backbone of civilization, hauling the goods that fulfill our every need and desire. Their powerful, highly-efficient diesel combustion engines are exquisitely fine-tuned to burn petroleum-based diesel fuel. These engines and the fuels that fire them have been among the most transformative yet disruptive technologies on the planet. Although this transportation revolution has allowed many of us to fill our homes with global goods even a past emperor would envy, our era of abundance, and the freight transport system in particular, is predicated on the affordability and high energy density of a single fuel, oil. This book explores alternatives to this finite resource including other liquid fuels, truck and locomotive batteries and utility-scale energy storage technology, and various forms of renewable electricity to support electrified transport. Transportation also must adapt to other challenges: Threats from climate change, financial busts, supply-chain failure, and transportation infrastructure decay. Robert Hirsch, who wrote the “Peaking of World Oil Production” report for the U.S. Department of Energy in 2005, said that planning for peak world production must start at least 10, if not 20 years ahead of time. What little planning exists focuses mainly on how to accommodate 30 percent more economic growth while averting climate change, ignoring the possibility that we are at, or near, the end of growth. Taken for granted, the modern transportation system will not endure forever. The time is now to take a realistic and critical look at the choices ahead, and how the future of transportation may unfold.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Reaching For Reality: Fascinating Impossibilities, Rick Miller takes readers on a journey of reflection through the miraculous events that have shaped and transformed his life. From electrocution and near drowning, to a deranged hitchhiker and a power saw gone mad, to the resurrection from his death bed through the intervention of loving beings human and divine, Rick's memoir of miracles awakens and empowers us with wisdom, appreciation and tools to encounter those experiences which would help us to grow and evolve if we only had the courage, the knowledge, or the guidance to interpret them for what they are. Like so many survivors, Rick asks himself throughout the book, 'Why did I survive? What is my purpose in life.' Perhaps one of the reasons that Rick Miller survived was so that he might share his Fascinating Impossibilities as a road-map to help the rest of us navigate and comprehend the mysteries and the miracles in our lives.
