The Department of Defense is one of the largest consumers of petroleum in the world. But oil prices are soaring, and some experts say existing supplies of oil may not even exist through this century. Further, much of the oil purchased comes from nations that are or may well be at war with the United States soon.
That’s why lawmakers, military leaders and others say it is time for the U.S. armed forces to shift to using new alternative energy sources to power the greatest military machine ever assembled. Indeed, a myriad of experimental alternative-energy programs are underway now.
But will these new energy types work well? And even if they do, will political realities of a powerful oil industry mean an easy and or seamless shift to alternative fuels? A monumental effort must be mounted to persuade Capitol Hill and the Pentagon to kick the addiction to foreign oil.
