Explain why the idea of an energy shortage is a false prediction and how are Most Industrialized Nations addressing pollution due to the burning of fossil fuels?
What will be an ideal response?
The idea of an energy shortage is argued, but remains false. Due to advanced technology and natural resources, scientists are finding boundless energy available, such as the sun and tides to combat any notion that there is, or ever will be, an energy shortage. Most recent attempts to resolve the main source of pollution, burning fossil fuels, has been through the development of gas-electric hybrid automobiles. Although the long term goal is to create a vehicle that gets hundreds of miles per gallon of gasoline, the cost of such vehicles remains high and many claim that this is only a temporary solution until automobiles are powered by fuel cells becomes practical.
