Under this field of study we explore the following questions:

  • What are the costs associated with a reduction in emission of greenhouse gases?
  • Should emissions be subject to penalties or should they be banned?
  • What encourages the development of new, environmentally friendly forms of energy?
  • Should we produce as much oil as possible now or should we leave more for future generations?
  • Will the price of oil and gas increase in the future or will it decrease?
  • How do
  • we make people save energy?
