Abstract

Unremitting population growths, coupled with rising standards of living, have been responsible for escalation of energy consumption. There is an identifiable minimum percapita energy use to assure an acceptable quality of life. The need for adequate energy supplies with tolerable environmental impacts has become the key factor driving domestic and international energy policies. Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations as the result of fossil-fuel combustion require cost comparisons of potential environmental damages with source-removal or replacement technologies; uncertainties of these assessments are discussed.
