Energy Crisis Reflections On Problems From Thomas Hine
THOMAS HINE writes that modern crises come from solutions that spawn new problems. He discusses planning in the undeveloped world, export of American concepts, and the drive to innovation creating ozone, plastic bottles, and traffic schemes. He cautions that urban living and suburbia bring new issues, urging careful judgment before adopting costly fixes. He ends with a personal note: staying in bed due to the energy crisis.
