Sometimes I know how you feel. but the truth is we do have a choice to not consume.
Carpooling to work, taking public transportation, riding a bike or walking on short trips, buying more fuel efficient cars

Ah, well, what can one do but stop driving anywhere. Not a practical sollution but if you don't consume you don't have to pay for it. Well, you would with all the surcharges that are popping up now for business to recoup their gas price increase for shipping and all.
I certainly know that some of the extras we were planning on buying are not going to be purchased now because we're spending the money on gas to get to and from work and our errands.

I've always questioned the price of diesel due to the fact of the less refining that it has to go through, that it costs more than unleaded. But then the reason behind the high price on diesel now is demand, due to more and more people buying diesel pickups.
Its pretty bad that the country that we get our oil from pays less than a $1 per gallon for gas, but yet we are paying $4/gallon.

Hmm...I'm just pleased as pie to be spending more than $40 to fill up my car weekly. I'm just thankful I don't have an SUV or truck. What really pisses me off is if the prices don't go down soon, I won't be getting an H3 next year like I've been planning and will continue to be stuck in a car.

no person likes the very incontrovertible fact that gasoline is going returned up; besides the undeniable fact that, all people who lives in chilly climate loves the very incontrovertible fact that they have got the gasoline oil to burn to maintain heat. That their babies can take a seat in a heated college room and save in convenience. If the fee is quite inflicting you issues than you have options; purchase a diverse motor vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle; take the bus or different mode of public transportation or start up strolling. may additionally flow closer on your artwork, faculties, hospitals, etc. while wintry climate is over the fee will come down til summer trip trips come around and than the fee will go returned up. As public call for is going up so will the fee for gasoline. As for me ..... I keep in mind paying .08 cents in step with gallon while i began out driving; so, you think of the fee is out of variety for you, think of with regard to the style between 8 cents and 3.00 money in step with gallon. study to stay with it or cease driving til they make choose vehicles mandantory in destiny production and trip trips by ability of motor vehicle turns into something that's merely performed by ability of the very wealthy.
