The paper describes two concomitant problems of much concern in the 21 st century; namely of dwindling en- ergy resources and of the effects of man-made climatic change, largely due to the over-production of carbon dioxide. The paper shows that these problems have occurred due to man's continuing requirement for a more comfortable life and how the deep oceans can be used to achieve this. The paper explains that man's requirement for a longer and more comfortable life is natural and as we cannot look back, the problems must be addressed; possibly by the skills of the scientist and the technologist. 1. THE PROBLEMS AND THEIR SOLUTIONS 1.1. Energy Resources To continue expanding the economies of the world there is a growing requirement for energy, from fossil fuels or otherwise. Apart from the West's increasing use of energy, emerging countries are even more interested in using fossil fuels for expanding their economies. For example China is building a new coal-fired power station every 4 days. In terms of Gross Domestic Products (GDP), China has the fourth largest economy in the world. Many economists be- lieve that within about 20 years, China will have the largest GDP in the world. Similarly, the world's largest democracy, namely India, now has a middle class of about 50 million people and to increase the size of this middle class, they will have to burn more fossil fuels. Sir Winston Churchill once famously said, "Do not pull the tail of the Chinese dragon or you will awaken it!" Today the Chinese dragon is awake and flapping its wings and very soon it will be in full-flight. When this will occur, one billion or so Chinese people will want private motorist transport; because private motorized transport is so much more con- venient; much better than public transport. Similarly, the Indian tiger will also want this lifestyle of 'milk and honey' and then Planet Earth will be in even greater danger of suf- fering an energy resources' crisis, together with the effects of man-made climate change. For example, today India, with a middle class of about 50 million people, has ca. 61 million 'cars' on the Indian roads. Economists believe that in the year 2030, India's middle class will swell to a staggering 543 million people and they will have ca. 613 million 'cars' on the Indian roads! In preparing for this, the Indians have al- ready invented a people's car, namely the 'TATA NANO', which retails for about $2300-. This type of car will prove very popular worldwide and especially in second and third world countries. The Indians and the Chinese will turn their
