What disturbs me is not the ever-present and perfectly valid public requirements for health and safety in the use of energy. Rather I'm distressed by a growing public conviction that oil does not . . . and can not . . . meet those requirements. () *A 1991 poll showed that 74 percent of Americans think the greenhouse effect is a problem. And 41 percent believe it's a serious problem.
