I'll finally be able to see the mountains and sky the way it should be, without a glaze of smog covering it up.
Plus it's the only thing pushing us to get away from gas and oil, it's going to run out eventually and if it did and we had no other technology, we'd be screwed. The only time people react is when a problem is staring them right in the face, if we didn't have the global warming controversy, we wouldn't be finding alternative fuel sources until we found out we'd run out of oil in 5 years. Sad but true. |
Huh? It sure hasn't around here. Where are you getting this information? Even though our oil supplies are finite, we definitely won't be running out in 5 years. |
It HAS gone down overall in the US, but in places like China, it's off the charts (goodbye Yangzee River Dolphin).
