This book analyzes the energy security of the United States - its ability to obtain reliable, affordable, and sufficient supplies of energy, while achieving environmental sustainability and enhancing energy independence. The economic and national security of the United States is largely dependent upon fossil fuels, especially oil. Without significant changes to current practices and patterns of energy production and use, the domestic and global impacts - security, economic, and environmental - are expected to become worse over the coming decades. Growing US and global energy demands need to be met and the anticipated impacts of global warming must be avoided - all at an affordable price.
