U.S. Oil Use by Sector: The transportation
sector, including fuel for cars, trucks, and airplanes, accounts
for 69 % of our oil use in the United States. In order to reduce
our dependence on foreign oil, it is imperative that we produce
and use non-oil based fuels made from American resources. Ethanol,
bio-diesel, and coal-to-liquid fuels are viable alternatives.
