2. Identify a particular regional, national, or world nonrenewable primary resource (such as coal) or a secondary resource (one, such as electric power, that is produced from primary resources). Research how much of it is available now and what the current rate of consumption is. Determine the static reserve. Estimate the growth rate in consumption, taking into account human population increase, and determine the exponential reserve. What social and technological factors contribute to the increasing rate of consumption? Brainstorm how those factors could be changed. Write an essay of three to five pages.
