Sustainable Energy Production and Consumption Benefits, Strategies and Environmental Costing /

Energy and environmental security are major problems facing our global economy. Fossil fuels, particularly crude oil, are confined to a few regions of the world and the continuity of supply is governed by dynamic political, economic and ecological factors. These factors conspire to force volatile, o...
