Efforts to mitigate climate change must target energy efficiency, experts sayhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/top_news/top_environment/~3/-qGtrbbCZXI/121026084655.htm?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email
Posted: 26 Oct 2012 05:46 AM PDT More must be done to develop energy efficient cars, buildings and domestic appliances to address climate change – according to new research. Twice as much effort is spent developing energy supply technologies, such as new power stations, as is spent improving the efficiency with which energy is used. Efficient end-use technologies have the potential to contribute large emission reductions and provide higher social returns on investment, so the imbalance must be redressed.
