The world's energy system is at a crossroads. Current global trends in
energy supply and consumption are patently unsustainable -
environmentally, economically, socially. But that can - and must - be
altered; there's still time to change the road we're on. It is not an
exaggeration to claim that the future of human prosperity depends on how
successfully we tackle the two central energy challenges facing us
today: securing the supply of reliable and affordable energy; and
effecting a rapid transformation to a low-carbon, efficient and
environmentally benign system of energy supply. What is needed is
nothing short of an energy revolution. This World Energy Outlook
demonstrates how that might be achieved through decisive policy action
and at what cost. It also describes the consequences of failure.
There is a great discussion taking place at TOD on this report.
