Studies, the Pardee Center for the Study of Longer-Range Future, and a faculty
associate in the Center for Ecology and Conservation Biology at Boston
University. He looks at energy from an interdisciplinary and historical
perspective. He pioneered the concept of "energy return on investment" for
comparative analysis of energy supply and use options and their economic,
environmental, and social implications. His research focuses on how energy and
other resources are used to meet human needs, considering issues such as oil and
gas supply, energy policy, energy quality, and energy transitions. He devotes
significant effort to illuminating energy's central role in human society, to
improving energy literacy, and to increasing understanding of relations between
humanity and its natural surroundings.<BR><BR>In 2006, he received the
Adelman/Frankel Award from the United States Association for Energy Economics in
"recognition of his unique and innovative contributions to the field." In
addition to serving as CEES director at BU, he is a professor in the Department
of Geography and Environment, fellow with the Pardee Center for the Study of
Longer-Range Future, and faculty associate in the Center for Ecology and
Conservation Biology. He also is Editor-in-Chief of the<I> Encyclopedia of
Energy</I> (Elsevier Science, 2004), the<I> Dictionary of Energy</I> (Elsevier
Science, 2005), the<I> Journal of Ecological Economics</I>, and the<I>
Encyclopedia of Earth</I> (<U>http://www.eoearth.org</U>). He holds a B.S. in
Ecology and Systematics from Cornell University, a M.S. in Marine Science from
Louisiana State University, and a Ph. D. in Geography from the University of
