Save the enviroment, fuel frices, oil companies

The nation that creates the technology and systems that

eliminates our need for fossil fuels will be the richest and

most powerful country in the world. Americans need to wake

up. If we don’t create a technology that eliminates oil another

country will. The nation that creates the most fossil fuel free

energy will ultimately control the world’s economy by

exporting the technology everywhere. As Americans we

need to dedicate our resources to killing our dependence on

oil not drilling for more oil or fighting wars to control oil. We

need to collectively foster an educational environment that

creates the technology that will ultimately kill oil forever. 

We need to resolve to create a United States that does not use oil or coal at all for energy by

2076. We don’t need 5, 10, and 15 percent reductions, we need a 100 percent elimination of

fuels and practices that are contributing to global climate change. The only way to achieve this

goal is by dedicating our education system to the project. If we put a man on the moon in less

than ten years, we can create technology that eliminates our need for fossil fuels in 68 years. We

need to force our politicians and society towards a total elimination of the use of fossil fuels as an

energy source. We can do this by only voting for people that are committed to the total

elimination of oil.

Dedication to the elimination of the use of fossil fuels on a large scale would create jobs and

ultimately an economy that is self sufficient and has what everyone else will want. We can’t

stand by any longer we have to act now to be in front of the rest of the world on this vital issue

of our survival. If we don’t win this next race for technology we could be the new third world of

the next generation dependent on the nation that does create the technology that kills oil.

The demand for more off shore drilling is deeply misguided.  We are wasting our time debating the importance of off shore oil drilling on our coasts.  We don’t have time to give oil companies an opportunity to extend the viability of their system that profits off the burning of fossil fuels at the expense of our country and world.  Any short term band-aid designed to help extend big oils dominance over our economy is wrong. 

Expanding the areas where oil companies can drill off shore will not add to our levels of oil reserves for a minimum of ten years.  The cost of building more oil platforms and finding oil deeper in the ocean will actually add to the cost of oil because drilling off shore is a very expensive operation.  We don’t have 10 to 15 years to wait for this oil to be found.

All Americans are for becoming independent from foreign sources of energy, but that does not mean we should be behind any knee jerk reaction that sounds like it might reduce the cost of oil.  We need to take a more enlightened approach to this oil crisis.  We need to take action that looks further out into the future.  We don’t need more oil wells that produce more oil for a system that is destroying our earth and our economy.  We need to end our dependence on oil all together.  Taking steps to extend a practice and a system that we know is killing our planet and economy is not smart.

We need to start making better choices.  Our choices will ultimately affect the outcome of our planet.  We can choose to implement plans and ideas that continue giving relevance to organizations and people that perpetuate the systems in place that are ruining our planet, or we can choose to implement plans and ideas that move past oil to new technologies that promote a sustainable world and a strong American economy.  We can choose politicians that are like minded and are committed to the destruction of the old system of government for special interests like big oil.  We can choose products and services that use sustainable energy strategies.  We can choose to buy from companies that support local people.  We can choose to plant trees.  We can choose support our education system which will ultimately be responsible for technology that kills oil.  Our choices matter, even if you don’t think they do.

The oil companies and our current politicians have had their chance to fix this problem.  We have known where we need to get the oil for the last 30 years.  Why hasn’t anything substantial besides war been done about the fact that we depend on the Middle East for most of our oil?  Because we allow the same people that profit off this outdated system to keep doing the same things over and over again.  Politicians and oil companies do not care about the long term affects of the actions they take.  They are only concerned with quarterly profit statements and how much money they can raise for reelection.  So why do we allow them to keep driving our country further towards the abyss of economic and societal disaster?  Because we honestly don’t care as long as American Idol is on and we can still afford our Double Shot Frappachino at Starbucks.  The time is nearing when we won’t be able to afford the common luxuries we are used to as Americans because we will have little to no money for anything besides gas and food.  Then and only then is the time when people will take action to change our broken system of allowing the same people and organizations to screw us over time after time.

We can’t allow the same politicians and special interests to decide the future of America and the free world.  Our apathetic response to the issue of oil has lasted far too long.  We need to take immediate action to oppose any and all processes and people that contribute to the proliferation of oil.  The oil system needs to be defeated and overthrown by any means necessary.  Allowing oil companies to drill for more oil off shore would be a vote for the same system that is destroying our world.  Any move that benefits the interests of oil is a move in the wrong direction.  We need to move towards all alternative methods of producing energy, wind, solar, hydrogen, bio-fuels, and even nuclear technologies need to be implemented and utilized.  Any step towards continuing this misguided, antequated system would be a serious mistake.

We need to seriously step back for once and look at the self directed course we are headed in.  We are headed towards economic and potentially global disaster if we don’t get out ahead of climate change caused by humans burning fossil fuels.  If we allow Exxon, George Bush, and Big Business to solve these vital issues like we have done for the last 30 years we are in serious trouble.  We create our own destiny.  Our choices or lack of choices has lead us to this junction.  We have a small amount of time to choose new leaders and organizations to lead us to independence from big oil and big business.  We can’t stake our future on the same people that profit off the old system.  Our world, our economy, and our future are all at stake.  All out revolutionary action and thinking is needed to overthrow the current political system designed to benefit big oil and big business.
