    Cry about gas prices next time you see them go up.

    Don't be part of the problem, be part of the solution.

    No, we will not stop global warming, but we can help it by not using fossil fuels as much.

    Higher gas prices mean you have to pay more for food.

    What about all the people in India, who are starting to die because they cannot afford food.

    Or large gas companies could just lower the prices..ever since Katrina hit they rose the prices ridiculously, and without cause. They hardly lost any oil, and just jacked the price then because they could. And now look at it..

    The reason they can is because we are dependent on it. Also, we are running out.

    Understand, most of the world lives off of oil, gas, etc. How will you heat your house this winter? How will you drive somewhere, such as school, work, a party? They will rise prices because they know they can make money, they will continue to until something drastic happens, such as a mass of people rebelling against it, which would be far out of anyone's thought.

    Start walking more.

    Im not saying stop using it all together, im saying cut down on it. Because I am aware that we cannot survive now without it, unless we get an alternative source in our cars soon. And make it affordable is part of the problem also.

    As selfish as it may seem, I live for myself, and I will live as luxuriously as possible. And if that means I have to sacrifice a few starving people along the way, so be it.

    Where I live its about 20 minutes from the closest city, and to walk there would be ridiculous, my school is 20 minutes away as well, walking is a desperate failure...

    Yes, we are in a recession right now. Earlier you declared that we are in a depression.

    Why not use common sense while doing it. see below


    What part of we are running out of fossil fuels don't you understand...?

    Well, maybe you don't understand, our economy is just going through a flump, if you look at past records (Which I honestly doubt you do, by looking at how educated you are in telling us that we are running out of fuel) What happens is, less gas price goes up, real estate has waves, these waves make it so in 10 years house will be worth more and not with what you bought it, that is why people move, because they make money, and they upgrade, food price goes up because they are looking for some money, but, your wages aren't going anywhere, minimum wage has only gone up about a dollar or maybe .50 cents. Yes, we are shorting on fossil fuels, but are we finding a solution, yes, but, not everyone will stop and just like someone else said, I will put myself first before a starving Indian.

    .. You're all moaning at the price in the US. I don't know if you've seen the price in the UK but you'd be shocked!

    You just insulted your intelligence by posting this. If we stop using fossil fuels, we will be using natural things such as grease, corn oil etc. if we do that what do you think will happen to those people in places like india? They will die faster because they won't be able to afford anything. think about all aspects of the situations before you go off about something half cocked

    I have seen it. and that's nothing the only reason the prices in the uk are more is because your money is worth more than ours.

    Well i live how you started to say that we are not running out of fossil fuels, but yet in the last sentence that you typed, you said yes we are running ouf of fossil fuels...hm.

    You have insulted your intelligence by posting this. I have never said in this thread to stop using fossil fuels altogether.

    Learn to read, then come back to me with another one of your so called attacks against my intelligence.

    I'm not sure what you have against India? China consumes more gas than them.

    And it's not fuck India, it's fuck OPEC.
