For more, read my 2014 article on how the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change left out
this energy research gap in its 2014 synthesis report.
(Please take the time to watch the 2003 lecture Smalley gave at Columbia University; this talk shaped my own reporting, helping result in my first long piece, in 2006, on the glaring clean -
energy research gap.)
My post on «The Food and
Energy Research Gaps» touches on two.
On that front, please have a look back at my posts on The Food and
Energy Research Gaps, Feeding 9 Billion and Varied Menus For Sustaining a Well - Fed World.

«With so much supply landlocked, Canadian oil prices are taking a serious hit,» Casey
Research energy analyst Marin Katusa wrote in a late June investment note that estimated that Western Canadian Select, a heavy crude, was trading for a whopping US$ 23 less than WTI; a

gaps in our mechanistic understanding of how particular dietary characteristics alter
energy balance, suggesting directions for future
research regarding pathways involved in hunger, satiety, absorption, metabolism, and adipocyte growth or hyperplasia.
At Bickley Park, we are constantly responding to
research into how to bridge the gender
gap: school development over the summer was fuelled by how to optimise boys» performance, resulting in the introduction of a new food technology classroom — providing hands on learning — and an outdoor timber trail to let pupils burn off
energy at break times.»
An important new analysis of
energy research spending shows a glaring problem, and opportunity, related to filling a big
gap.
The other thing that's still lacking, of course, is fresh commitments to boosting long - lagging investments in basic
research and development in
energy sciences and related areas — which a host of studies have shown to be vital if that reality
gap is to be closed.
One disappointment for me was the lack of any mention — particularly from a science guy — of the decades of bipartisan disinvestment in basic
research and development in
energy sciences in the United States and other industrialized countries — a
gap that many studies have found would need to be filled to have any chance of achieving steep drops in greenhouse - gas emissions.

The Energizing Finance
research, done in partnership with the World Bank Group, Climate Policy Initiative, the African Development Bank, Practical Action Consulting and E3 Analytics, delivers a strong wake - up call to the levels of finance flowing to close
energy access
gaps, but also creates a roadmap of opportunities which, if finance is more strategically directed, will allow us to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goal 7, and provide affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern
energy for all by 2030.

Research published in 2008 by Arizona State University professor Peter Crozier suggests that this nanoscale atmospheric aerosol species is abundant in the atmosphere over East Asian countries and should be explicitly included in models of radiative forcing (the
gap between
energy radiation reaching the Earth and that leaving through the upper atmosphere).
As we conclude in «Rising Tigers, Sleeping Giant»: «If the United States hopes to compete for new clean
