The Material Limits of Energy Transition: Thanatia

By: Alicia Valero,Antonio Valero,Guiomar Calvo

Earth has become a huge mine, with a greater quantity and variety of fundamental mineral resources being extracted year after year. Technology, from electric cars to everyday electrical equipment, consume vast amounts of scarce raw materials. On a planet with limited resources, are these minerals being properly assessed? Will there be enough raw materials to meet the demand of a world population on track to reach 10 billion people? What will be the consequences of accelerated resource depredation? Will the planet one day become 'Thanatia', a resource-exhausted Earth? This book allows readers to understand the mineral heritage of the Earth, considering the demand for raw materials in society, comparing it with the availability of resources on Earth and the impact of mining. The basics of physical geonomics are exlpained, allowing readers to analyse the loss of mineral resources on the planet. The impact of renewable energies and technologies, including electric vehicles, are studied. The book concludes with possible solutions to mineral depletion, from increasing recycling rates, ecodesign measures or alternative sources of mineral resources. Providing numerous tables and illustrations, 'The Material Limits of Energy Transition: Thanatia' gives readers a thorough understanding of mineral depletion. Exploring geology, geochemistry, mining, metallurgy, the environment and thermodynamics, this is a truly holistic book.

Piccolo mondo antico

By: Antonio Fogazzaro

Piccolo mondo antico (1895) è generalmente considerato il capolavoro di Fogazzaro; a questo seguiranno altri tre romanzi che rappresentano il seguito della vicenda: Piccolo mondo moderno, Il santo, Leila. Il racconto è ambientato in Valsolda, una località posta sulle sponde del lago di Lugano, e si svolge temporalmente a ridosso di alcune vicende del Risorgimento italiano, dal 1849 (anno della bruciante sconfitta di Novara) al 1859, in prossimità della nuova guerra contro l'Austria. Da alcuni appunti dell'autore sappiamo che la stesura del romanzo gli portò via circa dieci anni. Appena uscito, il romanzo fu immediatamente tradotto in inglese ed in francese, divenendo in breve tempo un successo internazionale, capace perfino di surclassare Le vergini delle rocce di Gabriele D'Annunzio. Proprio grazie all'enorme fortuna dell'opera, Antonio Fogazzaro ottenne la nomina a senatore (Aonia edizioni).
