A lot of environmentalists who are always trying to drive us towards using less energy, because all that energy's coming from the consumption of fossil fuel.

Improvement of natural energy technology

They could slow down by about 50 percent.

The car consumes a lot of fuel.

Coal is a fossil fuel.

and food into people.

Well, the fuel consumption is proportional to the drag force.

Linear take, make, waste.

Without it, we'd be in serious trouble.

The only reason modern agriculture can get away with killing the life in the soil is through another use of fossil fuel.

We've talked about the soil erosion.

We now rely on distant countries for basic necessities.

Now there's no question about it at all we will only solve the problem of replacing fossil fuels with technology.

Fossil fuel prices shot through the roof.

I made a promise that the next time I would fly around the world, it would be with no fuel, independent from fossil energies, in order to be safe, not to be threatened by the fuel gauge.

We're running out of fresh water.

The world runs on fossil fuel.

Now which addiction is greater?

The continent is abundant in fossil fuels.

What is life after fossil fuels going to be like?

Electric cars run on electricity.

So, the idea is that if we fly around the world in a solar powered airplane, using absolutely no fuel, nobody ever could say in the future that it's impossible to do it for cars, for heating systems, for computers, and so on and so on.

When this happens, they're compressed under tons of pressure, and turned into carbon based fossil fuels

But I also am in the fueling business.

If we started today, 10 years from now, at the end of this window of opportunity, those fuel efficient cars will reduce our fossil fuel needs by four percent.

How can we use this?

This vast continent is abundant in fossil fuels.

Another motivation, of course, is climate change.

Partly through this debt system, the effects of economic growth have been spectacular in GDP, damming of rivers, water use, fertiliser consumption, urban population, paper consumption, motor vehicles, communications and tourism.

Sounds like a conservative climate plan.

The brain is a bit of a hog when it comes to using glucose.

As the pressure grew, so did the heat, until a chemical reaction transformed the organics into hydrocarbon fossil fuels

Fossil fuels won't be available forever.

Suburbia, and many communities were designed on the assumption of plentiful oil and energy.

Fossil fuels are abundant in that vast continent.

like oil, coal or natural gas.

Imagine if we said, Oh yes, we can get off fossil fuels.

It's chemically fueled.

In fact, it's continued to increase.

And they'll get a two child family without a stop in population growth.

gas money.

So, traffic keeps flowing, so that means less braking, which means less accelerating, less gas and less pollution,

We stopped drilling in ANWR, but we didn't actually reduce the amount of oil that we consumed.

That's what 410,000 cups looks like.

They know perfectly well, but they have no other choice.
