About "Oil-Less Economy - Is this the end or the begining??" topic:
The world may soon achieve something long dreamed of by governments and policymakers: higher economic growth without using more oil. Rising efficiency, conservation and substitution are steadily reducing the amount of oil needed to fuel an increase in the goods and services produced around the world.
Global oil intensity -- oil demand growth divided by economic growth -- has fallen by about 2 per cent a year over the last decade and the decline is now accelerating, spurred by high oil prices, moves to alternative fuels and measures to curb global warming.
So, is it possible to have a oil less economy?? Lets discuss.....

No ways because the whole present infrastructure is using oil some where or the other .So according to me if there is a new innovation which can overcome the need of oil .We cannot have a oil less economy.

Oil is linked with lot of world economy. The rising price is due to appericaition in dollar index. Oil contracts are highly hedge. Switching to alternate source is likely. With big economies of world involved it wont be easy.

This 'hot topic' caught my sight and since it being a very contemporary issue, I wish to put forward my views. First of all we will have to accept the fact that the resources be it natural or man made will come to an end if consumed continuously. Due to advancement of technologies, declining mortality rates, changing life styles, never ending expectations of the people etc are some of the factors which has acceledrated the consumption of these resources. Now there are sevreal questions - such as, What happens next?? Are there any alternatives?? How long it will take to find the new alternatives??? etc. etc. The answers to these questions to be found out by us only, the users of these resou...

The End of Anna Hazare? The chickens are coming home to roost for Anna Hazare, who has abruptly called off his latest protest fast . The 74-year-old social activist, who emerged as the face of an anti-corruption movement after his first, breathtakingly successful, fast at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi in April , also announced the indefinite postponement of his mass “courting of arrest” scheme and planned sit-ins in front of the residences of Congress bigwigs like Sonia Gandhi. The most immediate factor was likely the 102 degree temperature he was reportedly running as the result of a chest infection. But the reality is that the crowds had anyway disappeared from his fast venue in Mumbai, as well as a proxy location at Delhi’s Ramlila ground. Compounding the apparent lack of public interest has been the lack of media coverage, particularly among the electronic media. The dip in interest was also evident from the fact that barely any of the 100,000 mostly young people who had...
