1) In the second presidential debate, Senator Obama mentioned that the United States uses a fourth of the world's oil but only produces two percent. I think when he says this that he is implying that we are using more than we are making shows statistic significance. I believe that he is saying America should be more responsible in conserving instead of producing more or consuming. Although the statement doesn't push his message clearly. He compells us to reduce the amount and need for oil.
2) The movie affected the way that i saw the drilling for oil in the National Wildlife Refuge because i didn't see how important and damaging oil drilling could be. I still believe that the National Wildlife Refuge should be preserved.
3) I do believe that politicians don't report all the information about peak oil because it can be suspicious and bringing upon bad news isn't going to help the public love you, or telling people that we need to spend and use less won't give you a better chance at office. The opportunities the American public can offer to politicians are a way to lead and some people find it easier to ignore problems.
4) If i were living in one of those countries, i would feel very shocked and i would want the oil drilling to stop. It is very harmful to the environment and after a boom, the city can fall to pieces.
5) If i were living in Saudi Arabia, i would be angry that the documentary showed the images and results because i could lose business or people would want to produce and consume less.
