ConclusionsConclusions
It will be difficult to correct the energy issue It will be difficult to correct the energy issue quickly, the near term solution will involve quickly, the near term solution will involve managing demand through conservation and managing demand through conservation and demand destruction. We need to be prepared to demand destruction. We need to be prepared to support those in need as we face the upcoming support those in need as we face the upcoming winter demand.winter demand.
