ABOUT DAVID RONALD DICK

David was born in 1953, in Dunnville Ontario, Canada, to parents David and Katie Dick, Mennonite vegetable farmers beside the Grand River. His youth was spent in a loving household with plenty of home cooked food and social activities with friends from the local Mennonite Church.

In 1959, David’s younger sister Loraine was born and they were the only children in the house. Summertime activities were wiener roasts with the fire on the gravel driveway, and skating on the river in the winter when the ice was safe. Singing hymns and children’s songs with others from church was one of the main forms of entertainment.

BYE-BYE CARBON! TOO BAD, SO SAD.

Bye-Bye Carbon! Too Bad, So Sad. The Transformation of Automotive Thermodynamics is an ambitious study of how the car world can take a step beyond the carbon-heavy systems and how it can deal with the underlying science of these systems. The book goes deeper into the thermodynamics, the engine of energy use, efficiency and emissions instead of concentrating on merely policy debates or superficial remedies…

Why this Book Speaks to You?

Bye-Bye Carbon! Too Bad, So Sad is a thoughtful response to today’s often panic-driven environmental debate. Instead of emotional oversimplification, the author approaches sustainability as both a technical and ethical responsibility—one that demands knowledge, precision, and accountability. The book tackles complex environmental challenges with clarity, offering a grounded and responsible perspective.

What sets this work apart is its focus on the underlying systems behind automotive emissions. Rather than promoting surface-level fixes, it examines thermodynamics and engineering innovation as the real drivers of energy efficiency. By analyzing how energy is produced, used, and wasted, the book presents a measurable and realistic framework for progress within the automotive industry.

Reasons Why This Book Is What the World Needs to Progress Forward

01

Considers Reasonable Innovation.

Builds smarter innovations in the automotive industry instead of response innovations.

02

Favors Reduction of Emissions at the Source.

Does not only regulate the results of air pollution, but shows how it can be minimized by redesigning systems.

03

Bridges Engineering and Ethics

Relates responsibility to scientific action, a method lacking in most books on the environment.

04

Gifts Hope with Knowledge

Gives the reader insights rather than loads of blame

Why You’ll Love this Book

01- A Science-First Perspective

The book clarifies the environmental issues using thermodynamics as opposed to the fear-driven stories.

02- Industrial Real-World Insight

The solutions that have been discussed are practical and grounded, as they are written by a person who has the hands-on experience in the field of engineering.

03- A New Environmental Literature Voice

It is one of the outstanding environmental books because it focuses on the root causes rather than the superficial solutions.

What Our Readers Says About Book

This book offered me precision and balance in the description of environmental problems presented in the book since they are not oversimplified, allowing even easy comprehension of complex concepts.

Finally, an environmental book one can read that has the background behind the issue (the why). Rather than concentrating solely on the results, this book looks at the systems and science that facilitate emissions and that makes their arguments much more persuasive.

Technical and easy to understand.

The author manages to introduce thermodynamics in a manner that is informative, yet not overwhelming, both to professionals and people interested in reading it.

It is a book that altered my perception about automotive industry innovations.
