USING OIL MORE EFFICIENTLY

BY DAVID

  • Why is oil efficiency such a big problem?
    • Because if we keep consuming this much oil at an exponential rate we will run out of oil soon and unless we find an alternative solution or use A LOT less oil we're in trouble. Although using less oil wouldn't be a permanent solution it would work for a while until we come up with an alternative energy source to power every single thing in the world.
  • What are a few of the things that an everyday person could do to become more oil efficient?
    • We can buy more oil efficient cars or make more oil efficient ones that are made by oil efficient machines or we could completely look into an alternative solution like instead of electricity plants, really big fields of solar panels, or instead of cars, horses.
  • How can we push bigger organizations to use more efficient non-oil consuming sources of energy? What could some of these sources be?
    • We can do a whole bunch of things like not buy any of the things that they produce or petition for them to get there energy/power from a completely different source like wind mills.
