Energy
We harness about 34% of what we burn. The rest is wasted. Other nations harness up to 91%.

We need to demand better efficiency.

sorry but it would take decades to un-train the masses who have been taught to waste just about everything they consume over the past 30 years.

But don't worry, peaking oil production will take care of our wasteful way within a decade.
