The purpose of this chapter is to examine the fundamental concepts of energy. As
vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf



discussed i n the chapter energy is a basic concept in all science and
vf v f vf vf vf vf vf v f v f v f v f v f vf v f



engineering disciplines. The concept of
v f energy conservation vf v f vf v f



has also been
explained in the chapter. Efforts of energy conservatio n usually concentrate vf vf vf vf



on either change to
vf vf technology or lifestyle. Increased emphasis on ener gy
vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf



conservation is explained with the help of some convincing arguments.

Students should learn that the use
v f of our
v f energy resources is v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f



one
v f of the major factors affectin

g those resources, such as through deforestation, oil spillage, forest fires, and
v f v f v f v f v f v f v f vf v f v f v f v f



destruction of t he natural landscape and vegetation. Later in the chapter, the
v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f vf v f v f



worldwide consumption
v f of ener gy is explained with v fthe help of v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f



graphs.

v f that energy is v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f v f



v not an

v it. The end

four
v f sectors: transportation, industrial, residential, and commercial.
v f v f v f v f v f v f vf vf




Students should learn about energy resources, their limitations, and their uses. Students
vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf vf



must know how large
v f each energy v resource
f is and how long
it will last. Both of these questions ar e difficult to answer because we vf vf vf vf vf vf vf



must make assumptions about future technologies for the ext raction of resources,
vf vf vf vf vf v f vf vf vf vf vf vf



v future fuel prices, and consumption growth rates. Understanding energy u

se means also understanding the consequences of its use. This
v f v f chapter will
