Life after oil: The American transition from our favorite fuel
by Soplop, Jeffrey S., M.A., THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL, 2008, 73 pages; 1452918

Abstract:

This three-chapter series of articles considers the way that rising oil prices have created a new energy crisis in the United States. The articles focus on differences between the current crisis and previous oil shocks, as well as the dichotomy of choices that the crisis has created for the country: whether to develop new fuel supplies, such as biofuels, or to focus on oil conservation and efficiency.
