This is great but, we need to look for oil and natural gas and start drilling as soon as possible because things are going to be very tough more tough than they are today. Only the oil producing countries will be able to survive since other commodities will become scarce and very expensive. Hence it will be very difficult for citizens, thats why we need oil and natural gas as soon as possible.
