... But I do know that the hemp plant (Cannabis Sativa) can be used to provide shelter, food, medicine, fiber, fuel and thousands of other uses with minimal impact on our planet so I ask, can fossil fuel do the same?youtube com/watch?v=QA2wf691-Rwyoutube com/watch?v=Ne9UF-pFhJYpeace out, MjD

"Why did God put so much oil ...if were not suppose to use it!"I love your logic. And why did god give us the ability to develop atom bombs, if we're not supposed to use it?Besides - you miss Gore's point. The drilling wont help with anything. At the most it will push the crisis one or two years. It is no solution.

Do you think that these refineries are just going to pop up like McDonalds restaraunts? It takes years, almost decades to get these refineries up and running. And the Department of Energy already reported it would take close to a decade for us to reap the benefits of offshore drilling. AWESOME! lets just ignore the problem, keep drilling and hopefully gas will be JUST under 20 bucks a gallon by then! woohoo!! Wake up!

hey ifyourscaredsayur, sounds like ur scared so just say U r. It's time to evolve past oil. The US has enough reserves for us to transition to hydrogen fuel, but they wont. maybe they're scared too. Keep drilling? It's this arrogant idea that we can rely on a old, and soon to be outdated fuel source, that got us into this mess in the first place. Tap our reserves and move onto hydrogen fuel. Solve the oil issue first, then the coal issue next. EVOLVE PEOPLE!!

Gore is a traitor. He was a place holder for the Illuminati taking a dive to get GW elected just as Kerry did 4 years later. It's not uncommon for fake leaders to be put up to pacify the population with the idea that truth is being told.
