Plastic
To the guy talking about plastic bottles and usage for other things, yes they can be a simple reduction in using plastic as you've noted probably when you go into a Starbucks or Burger King they use paper for coffee and then most gas stations they sell you a reusable plastic cup. Do you know over 300 billion plastic bottles are used for water in the USA alone yearly? By the way another simple way of reducing plastic usage is by a simple band. China did it 2 years ago by outgoing those very thin film bags used in supermarkets for fruits and vegetables, they figured about 500 billion bags per year were saved by people using reusable bags just like we do for a shopping these days in our supermarkets. One day our world certainly will be run out of oil, just like they said in the 70s but I certainly hope we will be smart enough for them to go on to other forms of energy and use the oil for all things nessary for things like lubrication
