Energy for Tomorrow: An Issue for Today.

Abstract

A methodology is presented for the development of actions needed to resolve the energy crisis. Identified is a three point program: (1) Describe an energy future for the United States based on the depletion of conventional energy sources, (2) Define the government's administrative and financial role for achieving this future, and (3) Channel government research, testing and procurement funds to the private and business sectors so that the development of appropriate technologies can commence. It discusses the inter-relationships among the various segments of society, economic interests and political forces as they relate to the energy problem. The author concludes that all of these elements must be analyzed in order to solve effectively America's energy crisis. (Author)
