Environmental Engineering Reference
In-Depth Information
In rural India, many people are not connected to the electricity grid, and still
rely on very basic biofuels such as animal dung to cook with.
Developed countries have the technical and financial means to make
the jump, if not the requisite international cooperation. But there is a
huge amount of commercial and political inertia in changing their energy
systems, which have been tailored to the convenience of extensive use of
fossil fuels. Altering our energy-use habits often involves some personal
sacrifice. Sacrifice is not something for which many people are ready to
vote in the democracies that exist in most developed countries.
