Offshore drilling? Yes. Alaskan Drilling? Yes. Nuclear power? Yes. Strip mining? No.
There are other options and avenues of research out there. Taken as a whole they can go a long way towards reducing our dependince on fossil fuels.
Hydrogen fuels (both as a combustible as well as fuel cells), underwater turbines, offshore wind farms.
It's not necessary to solve the problem in on fell swoop, but steps do need to be taken.
