Instead, says R. Stephen Berry, professor in the department of chemistry, greater energy savings might be obtained through extending the lives of motor vehicles and through less wasteful ways of manufacturing autos. Berry estimates the savings in energy consumption from recycling g the scrap to junked autos make metal for new autos) at zero to 20 percent; from extending the lives of autos, at 50 to 60 percent; and from improved mining, smelting, and manufacturing methods, up to as much as 90 percent. It would also (re-usin- be possible to combine these approaches. Extending auto life "would mean changing peoples attitudes about said Berry, automobiles, He said he was surprised that automobile recycling seemed to offer so little potential energy savings, according to the thermodynamics of the materials cycle from raw material to junkyard in auto manufacture and use. Berry said he chose the auto industry as a convenient model for a study he is doing on the thermodynamics of industrial processes. ATTORNEY GENERAL OPINION REQUESTED BY: Mr. Harvard R.
