Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1980, the second volume of Energy Development in the Southwest analyses water conditions and habitat life in the Upper Colorado River Basin, based on alternative national energy scenarios and attempts to assess some of the economic, demographic, and environmental impacts of each development scenario. The energy development scenarios considered in this book involve coal development and use, oil share production, and uranium mining and milling. This title will be of particular interest to students of Environmental Science.

Book excerpt: "The public lands of the western United States comprise some 450 million acres of grassland, steppe land, canyons, forests, and mountains. It's an American commons, and it is under assault as never before. Journalist Christopher Ketcham has been documenting the confluence of commercial exploitation and governmental misconduct in this region for over a decade. His revelatory book takes the reader on a journey across these last wild places, to see how capitalism is killing our great commons. Ketcham begins in Utah, revealing the environmental destruction caused by unregulated public lands livestock grazing, and exposing rampant malfeasance in the federal land management agencies, who have been compromised by the profit-driven livestock and energy interests they are supposed to regulate. He then turns to the broad effects of those corrupt politics on wildlife. He tracks the Department of Interior's failure to implement and enforce the Endangered Species Act--including its stark betrayal of protections for the grizzly bear and the sage grouse--and investigates the destructive behavior of U.S. Wildlife Services in their shocking mass slaughter of animals that threaten the livestock industry. Along the way, Ketcham talks with ecologists, biologists, botanists, former government employees, whistleblowers, grassroots environmentalists and other citizens who are fighting to protect the public domain for future generations. This Land is a colorful muckraking journey--part Edward Abbey, part Upton Sinclair--exposing the rot in American politics that is rapidly leading to the sell-out of our national heritage"--

Download or read book Utah s Energy Landscape 4th Edition written by Michael D. Vanden Berg and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2016-05-16 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utah is fortunate to have abundant and diverse energy resources including large reserves of conventional fossil fuels, several areas suitable for renewable resource development, and vast quantities of untapped unconventional oil shale and oil sand resources. This publication, Utah’s Energy Landscape, now in its fourth edition, was created to offer a complete, visually-based description of Utah’s diverse energy portfolio. The graphs within this document were created using data compiled by the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) from several sources, including the U.S. Department of Energy’s Energy Information Administration (EIA), the Utah Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining (DOGM), the Governor’s Office of Energy Development (OED), and the Utah State Tax Commission, as well as surveys and conversations with individuals and companies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This CD contains a 63 p. report of the task force to identify and promote the development of renewable energy resources to meet the goal of 20 percent of Utah's electrical retail sales by 2025. Work groups were established to identify energy zones for wind, solar, and geothermal energy resources. The Phase I report identifies energy zones (approx. 13,262 sq. miles) and an estimated 837 gigawatts of electrical generating capacity.

Download or read book Prospects for Alternative Energy Development in the U S West written by John C. Pierce and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book poses the question of whether identifiable individual-level attributes (e.g., values, interests, knowledge, demographic characteristics) lead to support for or opposition to the development and implementation of alternative energy technologies. In recent years, attempts to site alternative energy technologies (e.g., wind, solar, wave) have been met by intense opposition from a variety of sources, including many environmentalists from whom one might expect support for non-carbon based renewable energy initiatives. This volume argues that there are indeed such discernible attributes, and moreover that the identification and exploration are important for the development of support strategies for the well-informed and achievable siting of such technologies.
