Daily Energy Use and Carbon Emissions

It is without a doubt that one of the most severe problems of the modern world is climate change and its important negative consequences on the environment. Human activity, especially the consumption of energy, has been considered one of the main factors contributing to the changing climate in the previous decades. Because of the global warming problem, there is a growing concern about scarce energy sources on one hand, and a new paradigm of a green economy on the other. This book aims to understand how the economic growth, energy consumption, and carbon emission in the region evolved during the last few decades and how these variables link to each other.
