The dwindling resources that fuel our world
|
|
| The fuel that drive our worlds economic engine, is resources- fuel, water, land, natural resources and materials. Without more discoveries and production increases in the total petroleum manufacture, the world will continue to see higher petrol prices and increasing fuel shortages. | ||
| Access to clean water has also become increasingly scarce as many countries continue to experience extended periods of drought while others battle water born disease. | ||
| The cost of raw materials such as iron ore, bauxite and even copper have increased as demand by growing economic giants such as China and India continues to increase. | ||
| And land continues to be a premium across the globe as inner urban housing increases and less available land for farming, housing encroaches on any remaining wilderness areas. | ||
