World Without Oil is a alternate reality game, launching on April 30th 2007:
"The game asks players to imagine solutions for a world where oil has run out or is about to run out.
Creating a game with lead characters, hundreds of players and lots of interesting changing scenarios, is a great way to encourage participation from a broad set of people.
The idea of a setting up an ARG to encourage consumer participation seems really smart and could have lots of other applications in business."

I have heard as a topic of debate at work that oil is the main reason we are often at war with other countries. Kind of makes sense.
We need it, but I think we should really try to find something else to rely on for power...water, electricity...something we can produce in the good ol' USA!
