F.A.C.T.S. Flexibility, Affordability, Conservation, Transition, Sustainability: A Pathway for Future of Energy and Environment addresses the urgent global need for scientifically grounded resources on energy transition and sustainability. With climate change, carbon emissions, and geopolitical pressures shaping energy policy, this reference provides a balanced, evidence-based framework for understanding the complexities of renewable integration, fossil fuel reduction, and carbon capture technologies. The book responds to the demand for accessible yet rigorous content that empowers policymakers, industry leaders, academics, and educators to make informed decisions in the face of polarized narratives and technological uncertainty. The contents are structured into five parts, beginning with an overview of the energy landscape and its challenges. Subsequent sections provide deep analyses of non-renewable sources such as fossil fuels and nuclear energy, followed by renewable sources including solar, wind, geothermal, hydropower, and ocean energy. Emerging technologies, clean air and water solutions, energy efficiency, financial enablers, and public empowerment are explored in detail. Supplementary materials include glossaries, technical notes, fact sheets, and case studies, ensuring modularity and independent usability of chapters.

F.A.C.T.S. Flexibility, Affordability, Conservation, Transition, Sustainability: A Pathway for Future of Energy and Environment benefits its audience by bridging science, economics, and policy into a cohesive narrative. It equips readers with practical strategies, comparative analyses, and global case studies, enabling them to navigate energy transition challenges with clarity. By combining accessible language with rigorous scientific review, the reference empowers professionals, educators, and decision-makers to contribute meaningfully to a sustainable energy future.
