DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe start of the 21st century has marked an incredible change in the world of Energy. In fact, in a world which is more uncertain than ever (sudden changes in energy prices, shale and oil gas, emergence of new players, geopolitical tensions in Ukraine, Iraq, etc), the only real issue in which there is a general consensus remains that of Energy Savings and Energy Efficiency. This book aims to build a general picture of the world of modern energy by focusing on the major climatic and geopolitical challenges. It also explores the most recent developments in environmental regulations, notably those related to Energy Efficiency and Energy Savings, seen without any doubt as the founding roots of the so-called Energy Transition. According to Myriam Maestroni, a leading expert on Energy in France and Europe, these two pillars of the “New World of Energy 2.0”» can be broken down at international, European, national and local levels, not only because of the changes in the rules and the perceptions of policy-makers regarding energy efficiency, but also, and especially because of the concrete ground level realities, public, entrepreneurial, local or associative initiatives and technological innovations. The book, written in close cooperation with two top experts in the global energy world, Michel Derdevet and Jean-Marie Chevalier- also records the opinions of some of the best French and international leading figures who are highly engaged to contribute through their proposals, analysis and actions, to the emergence of the new world of «Energy 2.0», amongst which Bruno Lechevin, Fatih Birol, Johannes Meier, Marc Beckers, Ann Robinson, Stephen Howard, Juliet Davenport, Gregor Paterson-Jones, Jean Marie Chevalier, Robert Bell, Michèle Sabban, Corine Lepage, Gabriele Albertini, Jeremy Rifkin, etc.

Adsensory Urban Ecology (Volume One)

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAdsensory sign technology, which depicts the human body as both object and subject of inscriptive advertising technologies, is integral to a western capitalist insurantial financialisation of health and wellbeing. Developing further the theme of adsensory technologies of the sign, in conjunction with Daniel Bell’s theory of the codification of knowledge as an axial feature of the structuring of post-industrial society, this book explores gentrification in heterotopic post-industrial urban spaces. It brings together case studies from London’s Grenfell Tower, exploring perilous façadism refurbishment and London’s Garden Bridge project and speculative capital regeneration. These studies illustrate, empirically, the extent to which advertising adsensory technologies have become integral to the gentrification of post-industrial urban spaces. Several of the case studies engage critically with the empirical observation that, in the post-industrial urban ecology of inner-city regeneration, adsensory technologies extend avariciously into the infrastructure of neoliberal, managerialist gentrification. In addition, the book explores the forms of capital accumulation which are emerging from the integration of adsensory technology into the gentrification of post-industrial urban spaces, and examines a new form of capital accumulation in inner-city gentrification, predicated on the (de)generative integrity of adsensory financialisation.
Sustainable Retrofit and Facilities Management

DOWNLOAD EBOOKGovernments across the globe are setting targets for reducing their carbon emissions. For example, the UK Government has committed to an eighty per cent reduction by 2050, when twenty-eight million buildings that currently exist will still be standing; this represents a challenge to improve the energy efficiency of more than one building per minute between now and 2050! This is a problem that needs tackling worldwide and is a challenge to both the refurbishment sector of the global construction industry and to those who own and operate existing buildings. Sustainable Retrofit and Facilities Management provides comprehensive guidance to those involved in the refurbishment and management of existing buildings on minimizing carbon emissions, water consumption and waste to landfill, along with enhancing the long term sustainability of a building. Practical guidance is provided on measures that can be used to improve the efficiency and sustainability of existing buildings, through both good management and refurbishment. Also explored is the relationship between the refurbishment of existing buildings, facility management and the wider community infrastructure. The book looks at management tools such as post occupancy evaluation, building health checks, energy management software, green building management toolkits and green leases. Illustrated throughout with case studies and examples of best practice, this is a must-have handbook for engineers, architects, developers, contractors and facility managers.
Stopping Climate Change

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWritten by one of the leading experts in the field, Paul Ekins, Stopping Climate Change provides a comprehensive overview of what is required to achieve ‘real zero’ carbon dioxide emissions by 2050, and negative emissions thereafter, which is the only way to stop human- induced climate change. This will require innovation in socio-technical systems, and in human behaviour, on an unprecedented scale. Stopping Climate Change describes the changes required to meet this goal: in technologies, social institutions and individual activities. Paul Ekins examines in detail issues around the supply and demand of energy and materials, and the efficiency of their use. It also analyses greenhouse gas removal technologies, offsetting and geoengineering, and plots the reduction of the non- CO2 greenhouse gas-emitting activities. Having set out the changes required, Ekins considers the economic implications, in terms of both the innovation and investments that are necessary to bring them about, and the effects that these are likely to have on national economies. The evidence presented points clearly to the economic impacts of decarbonisation being positive for the majority of countries, and for the world as a whole, even before considering the benefits of avoided climate change. When the health benefits of stopping the burning of fossil fuels are factored in, the global net benefits of decarbonisation are unequivocal. Drawing on examples from the UK and Europe, but with wider relevance at a global scale, Stopping Climate Change clearly shows how determined policy action at different levels could stop climate change. It will be of great interest to students, scholars and policymakers researching and working in the field of climate change and energy policy.

Updated and expanded for 2018, this new edition allows you to: Get up to date on the newest amendments and interpretations issued in the past year Examine implementation issues caused by widespread adoption of IFRS 9, IFRS 15, and the upcoming adoption of IFRS 16 in 2019 Understand the new insurance contract standard IFRS 17, which solves the comparison problem of IFRS 4 Gain clarity and insight on practical matters involved with IFRS implementation This three-volume set provides the depth and breadth of coverage necessary, with financial instruments covered separately for greater ease of navigation. As the world’s most comprehensive reference for IFRS implementation, International GAAP 2018 is the resource no practitioner, regulator, student, or researcher should be without.
