Oil 101: 4/14
…“The next time you drive, imagine running out of gas and pushing your car home. Even with 3 or 4 friends a single gallon of gasoline that cost you $4 would take you and your buddies weeks to replace with human muscle and would be hella unpleasant in the process.
We never think about this. We just swipe the credit card and go places. And all we pay is the cost of pulling it out of the ground, not the millions of years to create it, not the environmental cost of burning it…
