What are the factors which can be indentified for increasing interest in the problem of the ecomomic development?

Concern  over  politically  controlled  supply  and  finite  availability  of  non-renewable  energy  resources  such  as  crude  oil  and  natural  gas  has  prompted  large  crude    oil-consuming  nations  to  seek  alternate  renewable  energy  sources.  Furthermore,  environmental  concerns  associated  with  carbon  dioxide  and  other  greenhouse  gas  emissions  have  prompted  countries  with  large    agricultural  tracts  of  land  to  seek  and  develop  clean,  renewable  biofuels  that  are  not  only  environmentally  friendly,  but  which  also  contribute  to  sustainable  eco-nomic  growth  and  energy  security.  Developing  biofu-els  does  not  need  to  be  a  panacea,  however,  real  chal-lenges  must  be  overcome  to  prevent  economic  costs  from  exceeding  social  benefits.  For  example,  countries  should  take  extreme  care  in  implementing  national  biofuel policies because in the rush to energy indepen-dence, more pollution may occur, and resources…
