we cannot abruptly eliminate oil from our lives here in the us, but there are some immediate things we can do short term, as we develop more sustainable long term energy sources. a cold turkey withdrawal does our society no good, as we do not yet have solutions in place. however, more actions to immediately conserve should be taken, and lifestyle changes must be \u201clearned\u201d.<\/p>\n

calling the region where oil resides \u201cthe enemy\u201d is not helpful because it blames someone else for our current problem. it is we that have to find our own new solutions, as we seek and develop new sustainable renewable energy sources. if we don\u2019t\u2026 then our future will end along with that of fossil fuels.<\/p>\n

the united states needs to find its own solutions, and not depend on others for the valuable resources we cannot live without. just as we have heard about our food, \u201cbuy locally\u201d, so to must we \u201cdevelop locally\u201d our future sources of energy.<\/p>\n

we must ensure a strong future for our children, because it\u2019s the right thing to do; not because we are waging battle against the oil regions of the world.<\/p>\n

let\u2019s get selfish and do it for us\u2026 and our children!<\/p>\n

do we need a better reason that this?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
