We currently are highly dependent on fossil fuels for most of our energy supply—this energy is instrumental for maintaining our current society. However, our supply of non-renewable energy sources is being depleted and may even reach a point at which its limited supply adversely affects our lives. The rapid depletion of fossil fuels stems in part from our current energy use habits. For example, the average American uses six times the amount of energy as the global average. Another way to describe this is that we use one million dollars worth of energy every minute in the US.

We can work to continue to use energy as appropriate in our everyday lives, but we need to make changes to conserve energy, use energy more efficiently or provide additional renewable energy resources that are technologically available to consumers. As individuals, we can make changes in our own lives and we can make decisions about our future profession to help solve our growing energy crisis.
