摘要

David Lapp's comment, "As engineers, we don't necessarily care why climate change is happening," is very worrisome (see "Engineers and climate change: What you need to know," March/April 2005, pp. 51-53). Technology, designed and implemented by engineers, is the fundamental cause of climate change. It is incumbent on us as professionals to ensure that technologies we promote are as benign as possible, and implemented as responsibly as possible. Energy-efficient design and development of renewable sources of energy need to be pursued aggressively to provide more sustainable alternatives to our current practices, and engineers are best positioned to lead this. It is the propagation of our current lifestyles and technologies to the rest of the world that poses the greatest threat to us all; we must find better options.
