0 energy from moving water, wind, the sun, and gas from animal waste:
1 energy that does not come from coal, oil, gas, or wood, especially energy from moving water, wind, the sun, or animal waste:
More emphasis should be placed on developing alternative energy sources such as wind, solar energy, and tides.
The following chapters offer an analysis of the future of fossil fuels, and alternative energy sources.
However, alternative energy sectors (electricity and hydraulic), plus the textile sector are the 'winning' sectors here.
This showed that the social trade-off involved in this project crucially depends on the social cost of the alternative energy.
The bulk of the changing pattern of oil imports has been due to increased dependence on alternative energy imports.
Positive developments were also noted with regard to the use of alternative energy systems, such as wind and solar, that help reduce fuel consumption.
These show alternative energy production methods, and the value of gaseous emissions being re-assimilated to create further energy sources.
In examining alternative energy sources, the book raises complex issues, including possible conflict between land use for energy rather than food production.
Local officials are calling for a major reforestation programme, and the use of alternative energy sources, but the lack of human and financial resources make this unlikely at present.
