10 events that have to do with consumption of natural resources. I have so far; first Earth Day, Exxon Valdez oil spill, and some act signed by George saying we can buy hybrid cars...

All I need are ideas, you don't have to go in-depth about them =)

yes go with the Kyoto protocol .That way u will be walking next week. The trucks will not be able to deliver your food or water. We had gasoline rations during world war 2 and it is not pretty. Why would the president want to put us all under some other country rule. If things was bad in world war 2 how do u think we would work out under the United nations. Not good
