ABSTRACT
Many people are concerned about the use of carbon-based energy sources, particularly oil, and how this is affecting the world. They are also concerned about population growth, people’s lifestyles, and the use and frequent misuse of limited resources by organizations. Creating energy by burning oil, coal, or gas releases greenhouse gases that are thought by most scientists to be a major cause of global warming that, among other things, could melt the polar ice cap, raise sea levels, and increase flooding in many parts of the world. Disputes and wars arising from consequent shortages of land and water will probably increase.
