That's what I was thinking!

The thing is though there are alternatives to fossil fuels. I mean, we may never stop using them entirely, but at least there are things like electric and biofuels that have less of an impact.

Also, we can run the country on geothermal power if we really wanted to. Apparently there is enough heat in the crust of the United States to power the country many times over.

The reality is, in my opinion, that we're just not trying hard enough.
