Yes, our lives depend on it. I am for alternative energy in the long run, but unless we find a short term solution, we wont make it long enough to transition beyond oil.

I am a very pro enviromentalist and always have been. However, there are times when enviromentalism becomes very near sighted and the movement fails to really look at the issues- we only react.
I think we need to seriously consider drilling in the US as well as small nuclear plants that have proven thus far to be effective and safe and other things we hold as taboo.

I actually have nothing against nuclear plants as long as the problem of the waste can be at least partially addressed. I do have a problem with giving Exxon Mobil and it's cohorts carte blanche to go about raping the environment. Big Oil has never been trustworthy before, why should we trust them now?
Simple question, should our government remove all roadblock's and ban's and open up Drilling domestically Immediately?
If we had done it in the 1970s at the first gas crisis, we would not be in the problem we are now. Instead, the ecofreaks wormed their way into govt. agencies.... put everything they could on endangered lists so now we can't drill. If people had not realized development of nuclear, geothermal and hydroelctric and clean coal were useful, we would be much better off. Again, the ecofreaks were against it.
