Week 6

As we continue to move along in the world in respect to energy and the environment we have taken a wide view of our problem. We have not really taken a lot of time to look at our options within our natural renewable resources. We still have a bunch of oil reserves that we know that we are keeping in our back pocket just in case. The just in case should not be to prolong the problem but to solve it.

I can see the Alaskan off shore drilling going off without a hitch as long as there are corporate sponsors powering the drills. We have so many other options out there like; electric cars or wind power or solar power. All of these cost money none of which the country or the world for that matter is willing to pay for. Our next generation car will still need something to power it it is a matter of what we chose, electricity or bio-disel or a new found source of energy we need to choose.

SIDE NOTE: I have begun to find myself more conscience in my daily life about how much energy I am using.
