  Will raising energy prices (such as gasoline and coal) press companies to increase efforts in developing more efficient forms of energy? We think so and here is why. Just click on one of the following headings to find out more about each point.
 



 



 
 

Why increased energy prices will encourage development.
 
 

How the increase in energy prices would effect the economy and everyday life.
 
 

  Where and when energy prices have been increased and what has happened.
 
 

Will an increase in efficiency encourage people to use more fuel?
 
 

The Conclusion. Increased energy taxation will prove beneficial in the long term.
