Overview

This book revisits and clarifies the scientific paper: ""An Interdisciplinary System Level Analysis of the Primary Scientific Causes of the Changes in Earth's Atmospheric and Surface Temperatures (Globally and Regionally) - and Mitigation Actions Needed"" submitted by technology developer Herbert A. Hutchinson (author of numerous books on technology development) for peer review by scientists and STEM educators in key organizations within the federal government, technology industries, scientific societies, and academia.The primary purpose of Part One in this book is to identify and correct the fallacious basic principles of climate science currently being taught in high schools, colleges, and universities wherever they exist on the planet. The updated information was obtained by applying a heuristic STEM-based system approach in the comprehensive ""big picture"" scientific analysis of the many databases that heretofore have been subjugated in importance or have been totally ignored (intentionally or unintentionally) by many environmental scientists and activists.As described in Part Two of this book, based on the findings and conclusions of this correct scientific analysis (in Part One), the set of technologies currently being developed to reduce anthropogenic ""greenhouse gas"" emissions have been reanalyzed for usefulness. By applying the updated factual causes and effects of global warming on the planet (on surface temperature, on the climate, and on oceans' surface levels rising), there has resulted in a more useful set of technologies better serving the energy needs of the US population faced with large population growth (projected by the United Nations World Population Division to double or perhaps triple by 2300).Part Two of this book also reveals validity of the Weighted Trade Study approach (proven in prior technological developments) applied to 25 existing or promising technologies (listed on the back cover of the book). A third purpose of this book (also in Part Two) is to address the need for much better control of anthropogenic pollution (especially plastic trash being dumped in the ocean) and the need for increase in modern wastewater treatment facilities generated by the growing population as projected by the United Nations.

Author Information

The Author has earned Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in Aeronautical Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology which prepared him well for the development (concept formulation, laboratory and flight testing, and analysis of large databases of technical and science content) of many advanced technologies operating in the world environments. The first quarter of his 40+ year professional career were with the Georgia Tech Research Institute as a wind tunnel engineer and with two major airframe manufacturers (in New York and Texas) developing and testing flight vehicle systems for the US Air Force. The middle half of his career was as a Federal Civil Servant (at Grade GS-15) developing and applying advanced technologies for flight systems and was Chief System Engineer for development of the USAF F-16 Multinational Weapon System. He served on three Presidential level technological fact-finding committees and several crash investigations (with multiple fatalities). Those achievements caused him to be selected as the Chief of the Flight Technologies Division in the Air Force Systems Command. His education and multi-faceted experiences were concluded as the Manager of System Engineering at the Northrop Corporation in California for the last quarter of his career. Being very experienced in the analysis and development of complex technologies, he is more than qualified to assess the system level perspective of climate change and alternative energies challenges and opportunities. He has authored two books on the advanced technological development of aircraft weapons systems (most notably the F-16) for the US Air Force and four books regarding global warming, climate change, and oceans' surface levels rising: ""The Facts and Fallacies of Climate Change on Our Planet"", ""The Big Picture"" of Climate Change on the Planet"", ""Dealing with the Real Climate Change"", and this book ""The Science and Technologies of Global Warming"".
