Cities like Houston need to diversify their economy, its to dependent on oil. Houston is starting to have some issues with the weak oil prices.

Oil is definately not the future.

1.It already has diversified it's economy since the 80's crash.

2.)Oil isn't the future, but it isn't going to run out anytime soon; in the mean time, Houston, being an Energy Capital, is in great position to take the forefront in making the use of clean, alternative fuel widespread.
