The automotive industry appears close to substantial change engendered by “self-driving” technologies. This technology offers the possibility of significant benefits to social welfare—saving lives; reducing crashes, congestion, fuel consumption, and pollution; increasing mobility for the disabled; and ultimately improving land use. This report is intended as a guide for state and federal policymakers on the many issues that this technology raises.
Natural gas is the world’s cleanest fossil fuel; it generates less air pollution and releases less CO2 per unit of useful energy than liquid fuels or coals. With its vast supplies of conventional resources and nonconventional stores, the extension of long-distance gas pipelines and the recent expansion of liquefied natural gas trade, a truly global market has been created for this clean fuel. Natural Gas: Fuel for the 21st Century discusses the place and prospects of natural gas in modern high-energy societies. Vaclav Smil presents a systematic survey of the qualities, origins, extraction, processing and transportation of natural gas, followed by a detailed appraisal of its many preferred, traditional and potential uses, and the recent emergence of the fuel as a globally traded commodity. The unfolding diversification of sources, particularly hydraulic fracturing, and the role of natural gas in national and global energy transitions are described. The book concludes with a discussion on the advantages, risks, benefits and costs of natural gas as a leading, if not dominant, fuel of the 21st century. This interdisciplinary text will be of interest to a wide readership concerned with global energy affairs including professionals and academics in energy and environmental science, policy makers, consultants and advisors with an interest in the rapidly-changing global energy industry.

Cybersecurity threats are not isolated occurrences and must be recognized as global operations requiring collaborative measures to prepare cyber graduates and organizations personnel on the high impact of cybercrimes and the awareness, understanding, and obligation to secure, control, and protect the organizations vital data and information and sharing them on social media sites. Most of my colleagues in the academic world argue in support of the premises of exempting high school students from cybersecurity education. However, utmost academic populations, the one I subscribe to, support the implementation of cybersecurity training sessions across entire academic enterprises, including high school, college, and university educational programs. Collaborative cyber education beginning from high school, college, and university settings will control and eliminate the proliferation of cybersecurity attacks, cyber threats, identity theft, electronic fraud, rapid pace of cyber-attacks, and support job opportunities for aspirants against cybersecurity threats on innocent and vulnerable citizens across the globe.
