Combining economic growth and well being for all is the main challenge to overcome energy-related challenges
The world must be able to sustain the level of energy consumption per capita required to support the economic build-up of emerging markets.
This presents several challenges, such as 1/ extracting fossil fuels under more extreme, more economical and safer conditions; 2/ building up refining capacity; 3/ reducing nuclear waste and 4/ ensuring more reliable means for transporting electricity.
Whatever our level of energy consumption, we must limit the extent of pollution created by existing manufacturing processes, reduce our consumption and develop consistent, reliable and clean forms of alternative energy.
