Effects of Energy Crisis In Pakistan
The most important
source of our modem civilization is energy. Energy is in everything . lt
comes in different forms — heat (thermal), light (radiant), mechanical,
electrical, chemical, and nuclear energy. The use of energy has been a
key in the development of the human society by helping it to control and
adapt to the environment managing the use of energy is inevitable in
any functional society. In the industrialized world the development of
energy resources has become essential for agriculture, transportation,
waste collection, information technology, communications that have
become prerequisites of a developed society. The increasing use of
energy since the Industrial Revolution has also brought with it a number
of serious problems, some of which such as global warming, present
potentially grave risks to the world. The macroeconomic implications of a
suaoly shock-induced energy crisis are large, because energy is the
resource used to exploit all other resources. When energy markets fail,
an energy shortage develops. Electricity consumers may experience
intentionally engineered rolling blackouts which are released during
periods of insufficient supply or unexpected power butanes, regardless
of the cause. Industrialized nations are dependent on oil, and efforts
to restrict the supply of oil would have an adverse effect on the
economies of oil producers. For the consumer, the price of natural gas,
gasoline (petrol) and diesel for cars and other vehicles rises. An early
response from stakeholders is the call for reports, investigations and
to a commissions into the price of fuels. There are also movements
towards the development of more sustainable urban infrastructure. div>
