POWER DEMAND


Power demands of developing countries are expected to grow by 2.5% annually. If those demand are not provided reliance on burning fossil fuels (gas, oil and coal) might be an alternative, if this happens carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases will be produced in our atmosphere, a scenario that will promote global warming paving the way for flooding in lowland areas (because of the rise of sea level and melting of icebergs in the north and south poles), powerful storms, droughts that could lead to famine, climate change and acid rain. A haze which is also known as “Asian Brown Cloud” about 3 kilometers thick, is assumed to be the cause of thousands of deaths in South Asian region last 2001.
