l. pink's *bp boycott* thread got me thinking.......
what would it really take to boycott oil? to truly live an petroleum free life? it would take a lot more than just selling your gas powered machines and riding a bike, in fact, you couldn't have a bike, tires, etc, all are based on that. pretty much everything manufactured these days has a petroleum cost.
you certainly could not own a computer, or television or shoes, etc etc.
it seems to me that we are completely tied to petroleum in all aspects of our lives.
