Περιγραφή
Περίληψη:Energy use and distribution imposes a significant impact on the world's environment due to the great magnitude and invasive nature of energy-related activities. Concerns initially encompassed a domestic character in the sense that problems associated with extraction of energy resources, transport of energy and noxious emissions from burning of fossil fuels originally affected people on a local scale. These concerns have now amplified to affect the international community as a whole due to the repercussions of energy use and its effects on the global realm, such as climate change and loss of biodiversity.
