520 _aEnergy and Natural resources affect the livelihood of over five billion people in developing countries and, in general, affect everybody everywhere. Ensuring sustainable economic development on the basis of the finite and depleting stocks of natural resources is crucial to the future of humanity on the disturbingly overcrowding, increasingly thirsty, and the energy-guzzling planet.
