Abstract
This is the concluding installment of a two-part series. The first, which appeared in our May issue, dealt with the availability of the Earth's principal current energy resources and the implications of their continued development, particularly at projected economic growth rates. The second installment examines other potential energy resources and discusses the need for early development of sound energy strategies looking beyond the mid-1980s. The author, an American physicist, is presently working in London as British Representative of Friends of the Earth, Inc. An earlier version of the article was published as a monograph in November 1973 by Resources Research Limited (London), which holds the copyright to that edition and to this revision. Readers who may have missed the first installment can obtain the May issue for $1 by writing the Bulletin.Keywords
