Oil Embargo Risk Highlighted In Missouri Seminar
Marvin Nodiff of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources warned that failure to solve the energy problem could lead to another oil embargo and worsen the U.S. balance of payments. He noted oil imports have doubled since 1970 and now account for 40 to 50 percent of supplies while domestic production will decline in 25 years. He urged government action with business and citizens, citing energy conservation measures and support for exploration incentives, coal use, and faster approval of new power plants with safeguards.
