Oil is ancient wealth in the ground.

The good Lord put oil and gas there for us to find and use, and we'd better do it.

I think really what needs to happen is the people of the United States need to stand up and say, 'Oil is an energy model from the past. It doesn't work for the planet, it doesn't work for the people, it never has and it never will.'

We have to get the oil where the oil is.

Oil is drowning our oceans and drowning our boreal forests.

We need to move away from oil, period.

I think one of the things we've got to look out for is human beings claiming that they know how God operates.

The confusing thing, I thought, was that most of America already knew that we were overly reliant on oil, especially on foreign oil. But it was news that this administration had begun to at least acknowledge that problem.

Instead of going to the ends of the Earth - and plumbing the depths of the oceans - to squeeze out every last drop of oil, we need, instead, to do everything we can to reduce the risks of offshore oil and gas production.

The more we are consuming oil that either comes from places that are bent on our destruction or helping those who are... the more we are enabling those who are trying to kill us.
