Powering the Dream: The History and Promise of Green Technology $24.35 Few today realize that electric cabs dominated Manhattan’s streets in the 1890s; that Boise, Idaho, had a geothermal heating system in 1910; or that the first megawatt turbine in the world was built in 1941 by the son of publishing magnate G. P. Putnam–a feat that would not be duplicated for another forty years. Likewise, while many remember the oil embargo of the 1970s, few are aware that it led to a corresponding explosion in green-technology research that was only derailed when energy prices later dropped. In other words: We’ve been here before. Although we may have failed, America has had the chance to put our world on a more sustainable path. Americans have, in fact, been inventing green for more than a century. Half compendium of lost opportunities, half hopeful look toward the future, "Powering the Dream" tells the stories of the brilliant, often irascible inventors who foresaw our current problems, tried to invent cheap and energy renewable solutions, and drew the blueprint for a green future.

Green It $32.89 Green IT ist ein Thema, das heutzutage nicht mehr wegzudenken ist. Die Bestrebungen von Unternehmen Green IT (IT = Information Technology) in die Unternehmungsstruktur zu integrieren werden von mehreren Zielen angetrieben. Aus einer rein betriebswirtschaftlichen Sicht spielt der Kostenfaktor eine wichtige Rolle. Der st ndig ansteigende Energiepreis treibt viele Unternehmen dazu, den Energieverbrauch zu drosseln. Der reduzierte Energieverbrauch f hrt in der Regel zur Verringerung des CO2 – Aussto es. Das Green IT bietet mehrere L sungen an, um bei vorhandenen Kapazit ten dieses Ziel zu erreichen. So kann beispielsweise der Energieverbrauch in den Rechenzentren durch den Einsatz innovativer K hlsysteme reduziert werden. Die zunehmende Ressourcenknappheit bietet ein weiteres Einsatzfeld f r Green IT an. Mit der vorliegenden Seminararbeit wird die Absicht verfolgt, die materialeffizienten L sungsans tze in der IT-Branche zu untersuchen. Im n chsten Kapitel werden die begrifflichen Grundlagen sowie die Ausgangsproblematik dargestellt. Das dritte Kapitel besch ftigt sich mit einigen L sungsans tzen aus dem Rechenzentren-Bereich. Es werden hier auch einige L sungsans tze vorgestellt, die durch eine Standardisierung von Elektroger ten erreicht werden k nnen. In dem n chsten Kapitel wird Green IT als ein Begleiter des ganzen Produktlebenszyklus dargestellt. Die Produktlebensphasen werden einzeln betrachtet, um zu zeigen, wo die materialeffizienten L sungen eine Anwendung finden k nnen. Anschlie end werden die Ergebnisse zusammengefasst und ein kurzer Ausblick gewagt.

Communication, Technology and Society $45.33 Technology was once something we thought of only in relation to manufacturing or the military. Now it is a constant theme in everyday interaction. In Communication, Technology and Society, Lelia Green focuses on the technologies of communication, from things we don’t even think of as technology, like the alphabet or electricity, through to the rapidly developing world of cyberspace. She argues that technology is never neutral, rather, it is closely linked to culture, society and government policy. Green looks at what drives technological change, showing that the adoption of new technologies is never inevitable. She also explores how a variety of technology cultures co-exist and interact: industrial culture, media culture, information culture, and now ‘technoculture’. Some communities benefit from technocultures, while others are left out or even damaged. This book offers a broad and accessible introduction to the complex issues surrounding technology, communications, culture and society for students and anyone else interested in making sense of one of the key issues of the 21st century.
