Natural Resources Available Today and in the Future: How to Perform Change Management for Achieving a Sustainable World
暫譯: 當前及未來可用的自然資源：如何進行變更管理以實現可持續世界

本書專注於提供我們所有可用自然資源的概述，考慮到每種資源的可持續性和發電潛力。各種自然資源的能源效率前景在社會的主要能源需求背景下進行了檢視，包括供暖/冷卻、電力、交通運輸和工業生產。地理、氣候和人口統計等因素被討論為影響全球自給自足比較機會的關鍵因素。作者深入探討了可再生能源的擴展和工業及社會中的能源效率改善，並在歷史背景下分析了不同政策工具在支持擺脫不可持續資源使用過程中的變化效果。最後，提供了更可持續未來的建議，涵蓋從改善政策措施到在離岸風能、海洋能源、生物氣體和能源儲存等領域的新技術前景。

Dr. Erik Dahlquist is Professor of Energy Technology and Research Director of the School of Business, Society & Engineering at Mälardalen University in Sweden. He has been Dean of the Department of Natural Science and Technology at Mälardalen since 2004. Dr. Dahlquist also worked for twenty years in the power industry, holding a number of research and management positions with ABB/Alstom Grid. Dr. Dahlquist's current research foci include Process Development for Renewable and Sustainable Energy Products, Energy and Efficient Power Load Management for Grids and Buildings and Environmental Management.

Dr. Stefan Hellstrand is PhD Energy and environmental engineering, PhLic Systems ecology - Natural resource management and MSc Agriculture - Animal husbandry. He has during more than three decades combined academic work with advanced consultancy. Reality itself has been utilised as a laboratory of reality, to which specific questions is asked, where the answers express the relevance and robustness of the academic work. Simultaneously customers are introduced to knowledge at the scientific frontier or ahead of it, where they decide by themselves whether it is for the benefit of their organisation to take the chance and risk to utilise it. This represents a process for methodological development where the commercial market is used as a prober in the academic work, at the same time as short- and long-term objectives of customers are fulfilled. Through this process a tool-kit supporting a sustainable development have emerged, that when applied in reality has contributed to sustainable intensification, supporting 14 of 16 environmental quality objectives in Sweden, several of the eight Millennium Development Goals, and with the capacity to support the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. Through these tools causal chains can be followed in systems characterised by mutual dependencies between systems and systems levels, thresholds, irreversibilities; i.e. the complexity of life as a defining systems characteristics. This integrates agricultural sciences, system ecology, economic theory, applied environmental sciences, life-cycle assessment and integrative assessment.

埃里克·達爾奎斯特博士是瑞典馬拉達倫大學商業、社會與工程學院的能源技術教授及研究主任。自2004年以來，他一直擔任馬拉達倫自然科學與技術系的系主任。達爾奎斯特博士在電力行業工作了二十年，擔任過ABB/Alstom Grid的多個研究和管理職位。達爾奎斯特博士目前的研究重點包括可再生和可持續能源產品的過程開發、電網和建築的能源及高效電力負載管理以及環境管理。

斯特凡·赫爾斯特蘭德博士擁有能源與環境工程的博士學位、系統生態學的博士後學位（PhLic）以及農業-動物飼養的碩士學位。在三十多年的時間裡，他將學術工作與高級顧問工作結合起來。現實本身被用作現實的實驗室，針對特定問題進行提問，答案表達了學術工作的相關性和穩健性。同時，客戶被引入科學前沿或其之前的知識，讓他們自行決定是否利用這些知識以獲益於他們的組織，這代表了一個方法論發展的過程，其中商業市場被用作學術工作的探針，同時滿足客戶的短期和長期目標。通過這一過程，支持可持續發展的工具包應運而生，當在現實中應用時，促進了可持續強化，支持了瑞典16項環境質量目標中的14項、多項千年發展目標，並具備支持17項聯合國可持續發展目標的能力。通過這些工具，可以在系統中追蹤因果鏈，這些系統的特徵是系統與系統層級之間的相互依賴、閾值和不可逆性；即生命的複雜性作為定義系統特徵的要素。這整合了農業科學、系統生態學、經濟理論、應用環境科學、生命週期評估和綜合評估。
