Abstract: | Energy use increases as more economic sectors develop and more channels for flow are opened. Economic diversity generally increases. As diversity increases the efficiency of generating outputs with a given amount of energy also increases. Two distinct development strategies become evident. Sustainability is enhanced by strategies which promote diversity and resource use efficiency in economic systems. |
