This subject offers a broad survey of texts (both literary and philosophical) drawn from the Western tradition and selected to trace the growth of ideas about nature and the natural environment of mankind. The term nature in this context has to do with the varying ways in which the physical world has been conceived as the habitation of mankind, a source of imperatives for the collective organization and conduct of human life. In this sense, nature is less the object of complex scientific investigation than the object of individual experience and direct observation. Using the term "nature" in this sense, we can say that modern reference to "the environment" owes much to three ideas about the relation of mankind to nature. In the first of these, which harks back to ancient medical theories and notions about weather, geographical nature was seen as a neutral agency affecting or transforming agent of mankind's character and institutions. In the second, which derives from religious and classical sources in the Western tradition, the earth was designed as a fit environment for mankind or, at the least, as adequately suited for its abode, and civic or political life was taken to be consonant with the natural world. In the third, which also makes its appearance in the ancient world but becomes important only much later, nature and mankind are regarded as antagonists, and one must conquer the other or be subjugated by it.

Aprende a canalizar tu energía, a desarrollar equilibrio y a gestionar la adversidad de forma energizante y divertida

Nuestras economías están sedientas de energía. Sin energía la economía mundial simplemente se detendría en seco; no habría generación suficiente de electricidad, combustibles para los automóviles, transporte público, transporte terrestre de mercancías, ya sea por ferrocarril o autobús. No se podrían mover las mercancías por vía marítima, la producción alimenticia sufriría de problemas, el suministro de agua potable se vería comprometido.

La energía ha permitido desde finales del Siglo XVIII, un desarrollo sin igual en los ámbitos científico, tecnológico y económico de nuestra sociedad. Hemos gozado, hasta ahora, de un suministro relativamente barato de energía a través de los combustibles fósiles, generando un impacto ambiental negativo.

La trayectoria seleccionada de consumo de combustibles fósiles hasta el momento, no es sostenible a largo plazo. De ahí el reto que no debemos esquivar, aun cuando lo podríamos negar: ¿qué debemos hacer para lograr una supervivencia futura hacia una economía de bajo carbono con una menor dependencia de los combustibles fósiles, y así asegurar que las generaciones futuras tengan la posibilidad de disfrutar una mejor calidad de vida?

Estamos ante un hito histórico sobre cómo debemos usar y apropiarnos de los recursos naturales, así como trabajar en disminuir la pobreza y desigualdad social.

Este curso te permitirá adentrarte al fascinante mundo de la energía. Los contenidos del curso, además de brindarte herramientas para la interpretación y manejo de información básica sobre la energía, te llevarán a través de los cambios históricos ligados con la energía que han sido fundamentales en el desarrollo de la sociedad moderna. Los contenidos del curso te ayudarán a la resolución de preguntas como: ¿ha sido siempre la energía un factor de cambio en el desarrollo de la sociedad? ¿la era del petróleo se terminará antes de que se termine el petróleo? ¿cuál es la importancia actual de los energéticos en la economía? ¿te imaginas cómo se obtendrá la energía necesaria para mantener nuestra calidad de vida en el futuro?

El recurso energético está ligado al desarrollo, bienestar, sustentabilidad e independencia de las sociedades modernas.

La utilización y administración adecuada de los diferentes recursos energéticos impactará tanto en el progreso futuro propio como en el poder económico.

Es imperativo conocer a profundidad los pros y contras de las diferentes tecnologías energéticas para minimizar el impacto negativo en el propio entorno al seleccionar, usar, racionalizar y aprovechar las energías empleadas en el diario quehacer.

El participante desarrollará competencias de análisis y juicio crítico ante la selección de un recurso energético, elaborando un discurso consciente y fundamentado donde se considere el entorno y sus recursos.

El participante podrá predecir para las tecnologías de producción energética:

• Capacidades;
• Eficiencias y rendimientos;
• Indicadores de la huella ecológica.

As a society and individually, we use energy every moment of our lives to improve our quality of life. Energy 101 will develop the big picture and connect the details of our energy use, technology, infrastructure, impact, and future.

A survey of how America has become the world's largest consumer of energy. Explores American history from the perspective of energy and its relationship to politics, diplomacy, the economy, science and technology, labor, culture, and the environment. Topics include muscle and water power in early America, coal and the Industrial Revolution, electrification, energy consumption in the home, oil and U.S. foreign policy, automobiles and suburbanization, nuclear power, OPEC and the 70's energy crisis, global warming, and possible paths for the future.

Learn how all energy systems depend on the finite resources of the Earth, and how this relationship can provide a unique “big picture” perspective on energy supply.

This course examines the choices and constraints regarding sources and uses of energy by households, firms, and governments through a number of frameworks to describe and explain behavior at various levels of aggregation. Examples include a wide range of countries, scope, settings, and analytical approaches.

This course is one of many OCW Energy Courses, and it is a core subject in MIT's undergraduate Energy Studies Minor. This Institute-wide program complements the deep expertise obtained in any major with a broad understanding of the interlinked realms of science, technology, and social sciences as they relate to energy and associated environmental challenges.

This course explores the theoretical and empirical perspectives on individual and industrial demand for energy, energy supply, energy markets, and public policies affecting energy markets. It discusses aspects of the oil, natural gas, electricity, and nuclear power sectors and examines energy tax, price regulation, deregulation, energy efficiency and policies for controlling emission.

Environmental issues require trade-offs, primarily in how we use energy. A former White House economist offers answers.

In the first part of the course, economists from the IMF will introduce the definition and measurement of subsidies, and then describe the economic, social, and environmental implications of subsidies. The second part of the course has two principal purposes: first, to review what works best in energy subsidy reform, in light of country experiences globally; and second, to illustrate successes and failures in particular country contexts by summarizing some case studies.

Whether you are a civil servant working on economic issues for your country or simply interested in better understanding issues related to energy subsidies, this course will provide hands-on training on the design of successful reforms of energy subsidies.

You are welcome to join us in this exciting course!

Energy Subsidy Reform is offered by the IMF with financial support from the Government of Belgium.
