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. We’re also exploring and assessing new frontiers for oil and gas development from Alaska to the Mid- and South Atlantic.
