This amount of petroleum is absurd. As a planet, we need to find renewable energy sources. I say as a planet, because when one person doesn't take care of the Earth, we all suffer. China affects Canada, the British Isles can potentially harm Brazil, and America can hurt Russia.
Of course, I am aware that we are trying. But something a handful of people don't understand is it really matters where we get our energy. I don't just mean we need to change what form our energy is in, like converting to water power as a brief example because that is a pretty unrealistic solution, but where that source is located, for example is there was a power plant that didn't require water, it shouldn't be located on a river because that would be disturbing the ecosystem and whatnot.
When we step back and take a look at all of the things we do, we need to consider our sources. Where energy comes from can unbalance another part of the environment.
Our energy sources matter.
