ENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION

This forum considered the transportation needs for various forms of energy and the long-term availability of such energy sources. Papers dealing with the transportation energy needs of our nation covered passenger cars, heavy-duty trucks, aircraft, and other forms of transportation. Economic consideration and investment requirements associated with reducing our energy needs were discussed. The availability of energy as petroleum and in alternate forms was considered. Some attention was also directed toward alternate strategies which might alleviate our dependence upon petroleum. Again, investment requirements to meet our future energy needs were covered in considerable detail.
