After hearing brilliant remarks by Dr. Steven Chu, the US Energy Secretary, at the NJ Clean Energy Conference, we are convinced now more than ever that it is time for NJ residents with oil heat to consider converting to natural gas.
Tuesday, October 20, 2009: 1:16pm EDT WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The rising cost of oil could damage the world economy just as it begins to rebound, U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu said on Tuesday. Wide swings in oil prices are difficult for industries to manage and the U.S. government is concerned about another price spike, Chu said. “Even $80 dollars is making me nervous”.
Crude oil prices hit a one year high above $80 a barrel on Tuesday before slipping to around $78 in morning trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
