Images of Canadian futures : the role of conservation and renewable energy / W.R. Derrick Sewell and Harold D. Foster = Images des avenirs canadiens : le rôle de la conservation et des ressources d'énergie...: En102-2/13-PDF

"How will Canadians meet the challenge of providing their energy needs as petroleum reserves decline rapidly both here and abroad, and as the cost of replacement sources becomes much more expensive? The kind of country that Canada will become during the next quarter century is being shaped in the response to this question. The industrial, cultural and environmental future of Canada will be formed directly by the alternatives selected today to provide future energy needs. This study was undertaken on the premise that a view of the implications for the future will lead to a more optimistic prospect for Canada. There are no easy solutions to the Canadian energy situation; but the challenge fully taken should lead to a much more comfortable prospect than if decisions are made with only vague feelings of where they may lead Canadian society"--Preface.
