This volume brings together 18 experts with diverse backgrounds and expertise from around the globe to tackle climate change from multiple angles. A comprehensive exposition of the interconnection between ocean, weather, and climate variability is a pre-requisite for understanding the challenge. The solution approach encompasses a better appreciation of the roof, refined solar energy estimation, heightened heat exchange effectiveness, improved understanding of photovoltaic operation in the Arctic, and integration of thermoelectric with photovoltaic. Adaptation is an essential and immediate remedy that every individual must take part in, understanding that men and women respond to the thermal environment differently. Imagine future buildings made from appetizing materials, closing a sustainable design process with self-sufficient communities. Would hydrogen become a crucial part of the mitigation?

Jacqueline A. Stagner is the Engineering Undergraduate Programs Coordinator at the University of Windsor, Canada. She worked as a release engineer in the automotive industry after her bachelor’s degree, attained an MBA, and a PhD in materials science and engineering, before her tenure at the University of Windsor. Dr. Stagner’s research interest is primarily in renewable energy. She has edited two volumes on sustainability. David S.-K. Ting researched on combustion, turbulence, convection heat transfer, and fluid–structure interactions, before joining the University of Windsor. He is the founder of the Turbulence & Energy Laboratory. Prof. Ting has co-supervised more than 80 graduate students, co-authored more than 140 journal papers, authored 4 textbooks, and co-edited 12 volumes.
