Peer reviewedMarino, Andrew A.; Becker, Robert O. – Environment, 1978
It appears that a variety of biological organisms, including man, are sensitive to both long and short-term exposure to the extra low frequency electric and magnetic fields produced by high voltage lines. (BB)

Peer reviewedWarren, Charles; And Others – Environment, 1979
Estimates of energy demand in the future must be approached with caution; however, evidence strongly suggests that future energy demand is by no means predetermined and that low-demand futures are quite feasible both technically and economically. (Author/RE)

Peer reviewedDziegielewski, Benedykt; Baumann, Duane D. – Environment, 1992
Presents the California plan for water demand management. Water conservation techniques are used to balance demand with supply. Discusses the implementation process: (1) water-use and service area analysis; (2) water-use forecasts; (3) benefit-cost analysis; (4) and development of a long-term water management plan. (17 references) (MCO)
