When human lives are at stake, why is it so difficult to do the right thing? When it comes to our planet, why do we hesitate and resist change that will result in better environmental situations? Why do we risk lives, our planet, and our dignity by allowing deep pockets to dictate our sense of purpose and justify our course of action?

He notes that "in 2009, the U.S. consumed nearly 5.2 billion barrels of crude oil. Petroleum will remain essential to the economy for years to come." How can we get our population to recognize the essential need to lessen our dependency on oil? What can we do right now to begin implementation of alternative energy sources? Why is there hesitation to explore this viable alternative approach which will result in job creation and clean energy? </SPAN><BR></DIV>
