Ensuring future responsible, equitable, access to affordable energy for both developed and developing societies is one of the most significant challenges currently facing humanity. Critical and wide-ranging examination of this issue is a major focus of this subject. This subject will facilitate active and informed student participation in the ongoing debate regarding current and future global energy policy and alternatives.
