Climate Change and Global Energy Security: Technology and Policy Options is a 2011 book by Marilyn A. Brown and Benjamin K. Sovacool, in which the authors offer detailed assessments of commercially available technologies for strengthening global energy security and climate change mitigation. They also evaluate the barriers to the deployment of these technologies and critically review public policy options for their commercialization. Arguing that society has all the technologies necessary for the task, they discuss an array of options available today, including high-efficiency transportation, renewable energy, carbon sequestration, and demand side management.[1] [2]
