Description: Examines existing and proposed energy alternatives including coal converted to a clean power gas, total energy systems, and geo-thermal steam-gathering plants. Explains that, because of current shortages in natural gas and low-sulfur oil and the growing energy needs of the U.S., the destructive and polluting effects of strip mining are being tolerated. Identifies nuclear power as a present focus of research efforts while experimental solar energy farms are exploring the ultimate source of clean energy--the sun.
