Bartlett, Albert A. – American Journal of Physics, 1978
Explains using exponential mathematics, the effect of growth on rate of consuming energy resources. Concludes that we are running out of energy resources at a greater rate than many people think. Lists few options left such as conservation by stopping growth of consumption, recycling, and research to develop alternate sources. (GA)

Bartlett, Albert A. – Focus, 1992
Applies exponential growth and the speed of doubling times to the energy crises. Increases comprehension of this mathematical law and the significance of findings made through its use. Examines statements from authoritative sources on energy to illustrate the lack of understanding of arithmetic's relationship to the energy crisis. Suggests ways to…
