    Which is our best immediate energy option?

    • Find and burn more forms of oil, natural gas, and coal

    • Cut out unnecessary energy waste by improving energy efficiency.

    • Build more and better conventional nuclear power plants.

    Correct Answer
    A. Cut out unnecessary energy waste by improving energy efficiency.
    Explanation
    The best immediate energy option is to cut out unnecessary energy waste by improving energy efficiency. This means finding ways to use energy more efficiently and reducing waste in order to maximize the use of existing energy resources. This approach is more sustainable and environmentally friendly compared to finding and burning more forms of oil, natural gas, and coal, or building more conventional nuclear power plants. Increasing efforts to develop breeder nuclear fission and nuclear fusion may be promising for the future, but they are not immediate solutions.
