So we are aware of the challenge. The next step for humanity is to develop long-term solutions to ease, stop and even reverse these catastrophic effects. This is where engineering and engineers can play an important role. Why? Because many of the solutions for combating climate change will only be found in engineering innovations and use of new technology. It is true that some changes are societal and require behaviour changes (eating less meat, unplugging electronic equipment in the home etc) and some changes must be led by governmental policy.

Into the future The global energy landscape is changing drastically, and if you're an aspiring energy engineer, for the better - jobs are proliferating. With the effects of global warming becoming ever more pronounced, and deadly, countries are ratcheting up investment in solar, wind and geothermal power, brining down prices in the process, and increasing their scalability. The cost of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules, for example, has fallen by 99 percent over the last four decades - a staggering drop.
