Abstract:
|
"The paper describes two concomitant problems of much concern in the 21st century; namely of dwindling energy resources and of the effects of man-made climatic change, largely due to the over-production of carbon dioxide. The paper shows that these problems have occurred due to man’s continuing requirement for a more comfortable life and how the deep oceans can be used to achieve this. The paper explains that man’s requirement for a longer and more comfortable life is natural and as we cannot look back, the problems must be addressed; possibly by the skills of the scientist and the technologist."
