Summary:
As energy costs continue to skyrocket, we wonder if we can get out
of the box we’ve put ourselves in and create a positive vision for
the future. I have Matthew Iak on the show to discuss this energy
phenomenon, and what’s in store. We need to use our resources to
create efficiency, and make decisions that will eventually allow
the US to be the biggest producer of oil and gas in the world. Tune
in for more information.
Highlights:
-Energy costs are high because of supply and demand
-The question is if we can get out of the box we’re in, and it will
ultimately take political will
-Diesel fuel is $6/gallon
-Many politicians know that it is a path to nowhere, but it gets
them elected
-Bad policy has led us here, but good policy can lead us out
-Global technology has helped with energy efficiency, and the
future is hydrocarbons along with renewables
-We need to use our resources to create efficiency
-The US should be the biggest producer of oil and gas in the
world
-With climate change, we continue not to do the things that we
should do
-We need to realize that oil and gas are one of the most usable
resources we’ll have in our lifetime
-High prices kill the lower end of the socioeconomic ladder; it’s
time to move forward in a positive direction
