Towards the end in energy policies consuming nature
Abstract
Energy policy, technology and economy are the
concepts that have to be paid attention together. There is a shortage of energy
resources. There are also a number of nature probes as well as a gradual
decline in energy reserves. Among them, greenhouse effect and climate change
are leading. That is, they require the production of energy politics at
national / international level, taking into account the interests of future
generations. The use of energy in accordance with sustainable development goals
ensures that natural balances are not disturbed at the production / consumption
stages. Alternative clean energy approaches such as green economy, ecological
footprint are increasingly foreground in energy politics. Diversification of
energy resources and less harm to the environment should be aimed. For this
reason, investments in wind, solar and hydro-energy resources should be
supported. Otherwise, at this rate in the future nature will be completely
exhausted, and become ‘natural’ out. In this context, this study examines the
new 'ecological' energy politics that enable the depletion of nature to be
avoided. The study is based on the method of scanning related literature and
strategy text with resources.
