Meeting the goal of cutting US oil dependence depends largely on two things, Obama said: finding and producing more oil at home, and reducing dependence on oil with cleaner alternative fuels and greater efficiency. America holds only about two percent of the world’s proven oil reserves. And we have to do it quickly.

The factors that determine total emissions are the amount of fuel consumed, its sulfur content, and any pollution controls employed. In a reflection of desires for cleaner fuels, emissions as a fraction of fuel consumption began decreasing around 1970, due to shifting to lower sulfur fuel sources, different end uses, and emissions controls.
