Gas production since 1974 hasn't even gone up
50%. It's risen from 6.3 million barrels a day to
8.7 million barrels a day. From 1974 to today.
There's been one new refinery built and that was
just started this past spring in Utah. It's quite
difficult to build a new refinery because of the
pollution they tend to cause.

Even the environmentalist talk about it.
