have voiced their opinions of the United States’ high usage of oil. These legitimate concerns have raised questions surrounding what steps should be taken in an effort to minimize the country’s dependency on other countries for this resource. Scientists continue to work on more reliable solutions in relation to this dilemma. Past research has shown that hydrogen fuel cells can quite possibly replace the country’s current usage of oil while having a more positive effect on the environment. However

SINKHOLES Methane Gas Hydrates Scientists at Cardiff University have discovered the presence of large concentrations of methane gas trapped in the ocean floor. This gas is due to dying and decomposing sea organisms‚ or serpentinization. The sediment contains bacteria that produce methane‚ which accumulates as super concentrated methane ice‚ called gas hydrates. The layer of ice traps the methane gas‚ and scientists are studying it as a potential energy source. What is methane? Methane

2013 Cyprus Is Sitting On A Natural Gas Gold Mine A recent discovery off of the coast of Cyprus‚ an island miles off the coast of Turkey‚ has found a large field of natural gas. The field is said to be between 5 trillion and 8 trillion cubic feet of gas. Cyprus is currently trying finance their huge budget deficits and bad bank holdings. Major energy companies around the world might want to invest in mining some of the gas as well. If Cyprus chose to mine this field of gas‚ they could generate bushels
