我们生活在一个独特的时代，人类世。在这个孤独的星球上，从来没有一个物种像我们现在这样主宰生物圈。人类直接影响超过60%的陆地表面和41%的海洋环境。我们消耗了一年中种植的40%的植物。最重要的是，我们正在以惊人的速度挖掘和燃烧化石燃料，每年排放360亿吨二氧化碳和160吨二氧化硫，这使全球天气模式变得更糟。越来越多的证据迫使我们采取行动，遏制并最终扭转目前的这一趋势。实现这一目标的关键一步是通过转向可再生能源来摆脱对化石燃料的依赖。能够使我们更好地适应新的、基于可再生能源的能源基础设施的技术需要在这一追求中占据主导地位。在此框架内，我们提出了这个特殊的问题，报告最新的研究，能源转换和存储的领先专家在地球仪。
We are living in a unique time, the Anthropocene. Never has this lonely planet seen a single species dominate the biosphere the way we do now. Humans directly impact over 60% of the land surface and 41% of marine environments. We consume 40% of the plants grown in a given year. Most significant of all, we are digging out and burning fossil fuels at an alarmingly fast pace, emitting 36 gigatons of CO2 and 160 tons of SO2 a year, which alters global weather patterns for the worse. The mounting evidence compels us to take actions to curb and, ultimately, to reverse this current trend. A critical step toward this goal is to free ourselves from our reliance on fossil fuels by switching to renewable energy sources. Technologies that can enable us to better adapt to a new, renewables-based energy infrastructure would need to take the front seat in such a pursuit. Within this framework, we present this special issue to report the latest research on energy conversion and storage by leading experts around the globe.
