Drilling Off Our Coasts is Not the Answer!
- "According to a 2011 study commissioned by the American Petroleum Institute, which represents all of the leading oil and gas companies, drilling in every possible place in the United States where there are still remaining oil reserves would add only two million barrels per day by 2030, or less than 10 percent of current U.S. consumption -- all in all, a marginal increase in production with little appreciable impact on forestalling the end of the oil era." - excerpt from interview with Jeremy Rifkin at Huffington Post. Mr. Rifkin's new book.
