Response to CNN: World Oil and Gas "Running Out"
I think this information is important because it tells you why people should invest in a fuel efficient car because of how the oil is getting used up so fast that people say it is all going to be gone in a few years. It does change my thinking because I wonder what we are going to do if the world does run out of oil in a few years because I don't think the world is prepared at all for that to happen. So the question I would ask if what we are going to do if the world does run out of fuel.
Notes To CNN: World Oil and Gas "Running Out"
The world's oil reserves are up to 80 percent less than predicted, a team from Sweden's University of Uppsala says. Production levels will peak in about 10 years' time, they say. The Swedish geologists say oil production levels will hit their maximum soon after 2010 with gas supplies peaking not long afterwards. Some say at that prices for petrol and other fuels will reach disastrous levels. Also some other studies say oil supplies will not start falling until 2050. The Uppsala team say the amount of oil and gas left is the equivalent of around 3,500 billion barrels of oil -- the IPCC say between 5,000 and 18,000 billion barrels, and the world uses 29 billion barrels a year.
Respose to 2009 GMC sierra hybrid truck
I think this is important research because lots of people want trucks for work or they have stuff they keep in the back or what ever. But trucks don't get good gas mileage. but now the new GMC gets 19.6 mpg. It changes my thinking because I think that people Will start to get hybrid trucks because every other truck gets like 8 mpg. The question I would ask is why does the truck looks girly or weird.
