Описание: This anthology explores the issue of the United States' dependence on oil. Can the country attain energy independence? Does the dependence on foreign oil weaken the economy? Is dependence on foreign oil a security threat? Can the United States transition from oil if it must, or is the country too deeply invested? This book gives evidence to both sides of these questions. Features previously published content from sources such as Jordan Weissman, Anne Korin, Pew Charitable Trusts, and the National Corn Growers Association.
