For years, industrial sites that once fueled the city’s economy have sat idle and deteriorating in and around residential areas. Now, the brownfields are presenting an opportunity for residents to re-invent their neighborhoods.
The problem is one of consumption vs. production. You can lower the tax on gasoline, but in a couple of days the price will rise again offsetting any savings you may get. No this is much bigger, and will last for a long time. Using less gas is good, but as our economy grows so does our oil consumption, as China and India's economy grows so does their oil consumption.
