Energy and the environment / by Asit K. Biswas Ph.D. : En36-509/1E-PDF
"This study was initiated by a request from the Science Council of Canada to prepare a report on the environmental consequences of energy development. Because of my personal interest in this area, I was given the task of preparing the report. During the course of my research, I have had discussions with engineers, ecologists, economists, political scientists, sociologists, physicists, and environmentalists from both sides of the Atlantic. I have reviewed the extensive literature in this area, and only the most important ones have been referred to at the end of the report. Except for the diagrams and tables whose sources are explicitly noted in the text, the rest are based on my own analyses and computations. The report is primarily aimed at the scientific and university communities. However, a considerable portion of it should be of interest to anyone who wants further information on the subject. This is the first of two reports on the subject in which I have attempted to define the problem. The second report will look to the future and discuss what steps are being taken and should be taken to alleviate environmental disruptions from energy development and use"--Preface.
