Increasing oil prices, combined with unrest in the Middle East, surging demand from energy-thirsty nations, and natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, have conspired to encourage Americans to rethink how they use energy resources. This book explores the many issues related to the supply of energy in the United States.
In recent years, increasing oil prices, combined with ongoing unrest in the Middle East, surging demand from energy-thirsty nations, and natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, have conspired to encourage Americans to rethink how they use energy resources. ""Energy Policy"" explores the many issues related to the supply of energy in the United States: the availability of oil and American dependence on foreign oil, drilling in the Arctic Refuge, pollution concerns, alternative energy sources such as wind and solar power, and the safety of nuclear power.
