Preface

The problem of global warming is becoming one of the most important problems facing mankind because of its direct effect on the entire planet (coastal flooding, heat waves, rainfalls, wildfires, food production, and many others). The emission of greenhouse gases resulting from the burning of fossil fuels has been identified as the main cause of current climatic changes. Currently, about 80% of the global energy demand comes from the burning of fossil fuel, resulting in the emission of a huge amount of CO2 to the atmosphere. Also, the burning of coal, natural gas, and oil for electricity and heat is the largest single source of global greenhouse gas emissions. Researchers an
