About this ebook

The contributors to this book review the environmental problems created by rising energy demand, and examine their impact on the oil industry especially in the Asia-Pacific region where future demand for oil is projected to increase the most. Policy options to minimize energy-related environmental problems are discussed.

The contributors also address these questions:

• What are the economic implications of emission control to developing countries, and the process, mechanism and constraints for multilateral agreement on the reduction of pollutants, particularly greenhouse gases

• Within the broader context of oil price volatility, why has environmental concern created a need for dialogue between oil producers and consumers?
