I'd personally like to see us shift our focus from drilling to these alternatives. If we start now, we can completely be free of oil in the near future, right?
Actually, there is a LOT of venture capital funding going into alternative energy sources and fuels right now, as many investors see this as the next potential cash cow to get in on. This is great, but it may take a few years before we see the results.
