Here’s hoping we make some significant strides towards “…the substantial replacement on a global level of oil with renewable energy …” in 2008.

The resulting higher gas prices should reduce use and cut carbon dioxide emissions. It is really inconsistant and illogical for anyone to complain about co2 caused warming and higher fuel prices at the same time. The real benefit of higher oil prices is increased development of alternative fuels. Bio-fuels are getting a real push and an ability to compete. The rising oil price has allowed Canada, the country that supplies the US with the largest percentage of imported oil, to rapidly expanded its oil production from tar sands and it may in the near future produce more oil from tar sands than from conventional petroleum sources. Certainly there are some economic hardships from the rising prices, but there are positive aspects that should not be overlooked.

It is easy to see a scenario of $125 a barrel price in the same time frame. The triple digit price of oil will become the norm.

We need a gradual increase on gasoline tax to $2 - $3/gallon to support 21st Century infrastructure. Better that the incremental cost of gas goes to the US government than the producers! Rebates could go to those unable to afford the tax, and infrastructure improvements would lower demand. -David Fox David-
