Countries like Greenland & Nova Scotia run entirely on Geothermal
energy. We can do it, we just need all the oil to get used up to take
away the excuse why not to.

If you look at the history of this country, this is always the case. We
seem to have a need to get ourselves out of a pending disaster before
anything really changes.

Brazil no longer uses crude oil to run the majority of their vehicles.
They use ethanol, which they grow crops and process themselves. Ethanol
can be made from sugar crops, corn, switchgrass, as well as other
abundant biomass. The excuses are endless, but the crisis is real.

Brazil has been making ethanol since the 1970's gas shortage...some
governments actually learn from history. Other governments are doomed to
repeat their mistakes over, and over again...until it takes a national
crisis to wake them up...
