Renewable Energy : Power for a Sustainable Future
The provision of sustainable energy supplies for an expanding and increasingly productive world is one of the major issues facing civilisation today. Renewable Energy examines both the practical and economic potential of the renewable energy sources to meet this challenge.The underlying physical and technological principles behind deriving power from direct solar (solar thermal and photovoltaics), indirect solar (biomass, hydro, wind and wave) and non-solar (tidal and geothermal) energy sources are explained, within the context of their environmental impacts, their economics and their future prospects. Renewable Energy provides both perspective and detail on the relative merits and state of progress of technologies for utilizing the various 'renewables'.The analysis considers emissions, sustainability, cost implications and energy security, as political and economic pressures move society towards a low-carbon future.From an overview of basic energy conversion processes, through a discussion of the individual renewable sources, to a concluding examination of the prospects for their integration into national and international networks and the outlook for renewable energy, this book provides a valuable insight into prospects for the renewables. Online resources Renewable Energy is accompanied by online resources which include: For students:· Auto- marked multiple choice questions to accompany each chapter· Curated links to further information and up-to-date energy statistics.For registered adopters of the book:· Figures from the book: available to download for use in lectures

Genre
This second edition of John Frow’s Genre offers a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the area.Genre is a key means by which we categorize the many forms of literature and culture, but it is also much more than that: in talk and writing, in music and images, in film and television, genres actively generate and shape our knowledge of the world.Understanding genre as a dynamic process rather than a set of stable rules, this book explores:the relation of simple to complex genresthe history of literary genre in theorythe generic organisation of implied meaningsthe structuring of interpretation by genrethe uses of genre in teaching. John Frow’s lucid exploration of this fascinating concept has become essential reading for students of literary and cultural studies, and the second edition expands on the original to take account of recent debates in genre theory and the emergence of digital genres.

Transmedia/Genre : Rethinking Genre in a Multiplatform Culture
This book brings genre back to the forefront of the current transmedia trend.Genres are perhaps the most innately transmedial of media constructs, formed as they are from all kinds of industrial, technological and discursive phenomena.Yet, few have considered how genre works in a multiplatform context.This book does precisely that, making a uniquely transmedial contribution to the study of genre in the age of media convergence.The book interrogates how industrial, technological and participatory transformations of digital platforms and emerging technologies reshape workings of genre.The authors consider franchises such as Star Wars, streaming platforms such as Netflix, catch-up services such as ITV Hub, creative technologies such as virtual reality, and beyond.In setting the stage for the revival of genre theory in contemporary transmedia scholarship, this book pushes forward understandings of multiplatform media and the emerging form and function of genre across contemporary culture.

-
Is solar energy renewable?
Yes, solar energy is renewable because it is derived from the sun, which is a virtually limitless source of energy. The sun's energy is constantly being replenished and will continue to do so for billions of years. This makes solar energy a sustainable and renewable source of power that can be harnessed for electricity generation and other applications.
-
What is renewable energy?
Renewable energy is energy that is collected from resources that are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat. These sources of energy are considered sustainable because they are naturally replenished and do not deplete finite resources. Renewable energy is seen as a cleaner and more environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels, as it produces lower levels of greenhouse gas emissions and reduces our dependence on non-renewable resources.
-
What are renewable resources and renewable energy sources?
Renewable resources are natural resources that can be replenished or regenerated over time, such as sunlight, wind, and water. Renewable energy sources are sources of energy that come from these renewable resources, such as solar power, wind power, hydropower, and geothermal energy. These sources of energy are considered sustainable and environmentally friendly because they do not deplete the Earth's resources and produce lower levels of greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels.

Australian Genre Film
Australian Genre Film interrogates key genres at the core of Australia’s so-called new golden age of genre cinema, establishing the foundation on which more sustained research on film genre in Australian cinema can develop.The book examines what characterises Australian cinema and its output in this new golden age, as contributors ask to what extent Australian genre film draws on widely understood (and largely Hollywood-based) conventions, as compared to culturally specific conventions of genre storytelling.As such, this book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of Australian genre film, undertaken through original analyses of 13 significant Australian genres: action, biopics, comedy, crime, horror, musical, road movie, romance, science fiction, teen, thriller, war, and the Western. This book will be a cornerstone work for the burgeoning field of Australian film genre studies and a must-read for academics; researchers; undergraduate students; postgraduate students; and general readers interested in film studies, media studies, cultural studies, Australian studies, and sociology.

What are renewable and non-renewable energy sources?
Renewable energy sources are those that can be replenished naturally and are not depleted when used, such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal energy. These sources are sustainable and have minimal impact on the environment. Non-renewable energy sources, on the other hand, are finite and cannot be replenished in a short period of time, such as fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. These sources are not sustainable and contribute to environmental pollution and climate change.
-
Are renewable resources the same as sustainable resources?
Renewable resources and sustainable resources are related concepts but not exactly the same. Renewable resources are those that can be replenished naturally over time, such as sunlight, wind, and water. Sustainable resources, on the other hand, refer to resources that are managed in a way that meets current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. While renewable resources are often considered sustainable, not all sustainable resources are necessarily renewable, as some non-renewable resources can be managed in a way that ensures their long-term availability.
