Sustainability: Future Energy Needs

Dr. Pawan Kahol, Associate Dean of the College of Natural and Applied Sciences, presents 'Sustainability: Future Energy Needs.'

Conserve energy, do what you can, change to compact fluorescents; but that is nothing compared to the 13 Terawatts that the whole globe consumes on average. Dr. Kahol gives a very simple physicists perspective on our future energy needs.

Dr. Pawan Kahol is Associate Dean of the College of Natural & Applied Sciences. He is a recipient of the 2009 Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching Missouri Professor of the Year award. During his professional career, he has published over 150 refereed research papers in physics, chemistry, and materials science, made over 160 national/international/regional presentations, chaired sessions at conferences, co-authored solution manuals for both the calculus-based and the trigonometry-based introductory physics textbooks, received effective teaching university awards, and served in administrative positions for several years.
