Laird Thompson

Laird Thompson talked about the history and the future of oil. 60% to 70% of our oil from an oil well. We are very dependent on oil even though we get it from other countries. There are a lot of injuries and accidents from oil that we never hear about because its not in our country.
there are fires that creates lakes of oil this is very dangerous to the environment. We now import 2/3 of oil . We use oil in everyday life. We use it get from here to there but no one every thinks of the damage it causes.
Some ways he suggested to help oil consumption. We could use synthetic oil which lasts longer.
Its weird that oil is found in tables and plastic.People should be aware of the problems goin on. The drilling in the oceans and all the oil spills that are killing.
