The Arab Oil Embargo, Sandy, and Adapting to New Realities

#Energy This month marks the anniversaries of two notable events, decades apart yet related in terms of historical impact, awareness of vulnerability, and challenge to business as usual: the Arab oil embargo 40 years ago (Oct. 19-20, 1973) and Superstorm Sandy, which hit the Northeast on Oct. 29 last year. Both events sparked a national and global focus on two concepts I’ve been hearing quite a bit about in recent months: adaptation and resilience.http://www.renewableenergyworld.com/rea/news/article/2013/10/the-arab-oil-embargo-sandy-and-adapting-to-new-realities?cmpid=rss http://bit.ly/15KdByZ
