The Political Chemistry of Oil

In the Gulf oil spill's aftermath, Lisa Margonelli says drilling moratoriums and executive ousters make for good theater, but distract from the issue at its heart: our unrestrained oil consumption. She shares her bold plan to wean America off of oil — by confronting consumers with its real cost. (Filmed at TEDxOilSpill.)

impressive and a little scary. The question is can we escape from oil and gas consumption? Could be not in a near future but when? There is hope, because for example an electric car has begun to emerge
