Reasons to Love 3-Digit Oil

The energy and global warming conundrum is not going to be resolved by just inventing or resorting to hybrid, electric and smaller automobile vehicles. It really needs "change" and real drastic and fundamental change change in our life-styles in many ways. Smaller and more energy efficient houses, the end of suburbia and distant commuting lifestyles, much more public transit which is affordable, the end of intercity commuting for going to work in an office and related, perhaps mega- and livable towns/cities coming into fashion again, etc and etc. What the American car driver will save by using hybrids, electric, hydrogen and etc and etc would be more than offset by several times by newly affluent Asians and Latin Americans. The American model of lifestyles have to undergo rapid change to save this planet, because that is the basis or ideal which the world at large tends to copy. And, that copying on a mass-scale is marching us all on toward bigger and bigger disasters in all kinds of ways!
