response to "eating fossil fuels"

My sumnary is in responose to "Eating Fossil Fuels" by Dale Allen pfeiffer ...

The title of the article seemed to exagerrate a little. When Pfeiffer says that we are literally eating fossil fuels what else does he mean by that besides the pesticides that are sprayed on our crops. I agree that without fossil fuels we would have never industrialized the way we did. Fossil fuels is used for fertilizers, pesticides, machinery (which requires fuel), electricity on the farms, maintenance of farm buildings etc. So we are eating fossil fuels, that i believe... however it is not all we are eating. .. or is it?
The Green Revolution occurred between the years of 1950 and 1960. I think its funny that only 20 years before 1950, the Great Depression took place in u.s.a....i guess we recuperated well. Also the 1950's and 60's, was not that long ago from where we are now. In fact, if the green revolution was the concrete transformation of agriculture globally and the beginning of the high use of fossil fuels, than the citizens of this country have really overused the oils up. my remark is stating the obvious but to really think about how the billions of pounds of fossil fuels used in these years is remarkable. Incredible and disgusting. Its funny because i read this article and i'm fucking shocked with what i read but when i get down to practical thinking, personally it would be extremely difficult to think of myself living a life without fossil fuels. I as well as classmates and everyone i see around me in this city are very reliant on the fossil fuels. Dale Allen brings up a great point in this article of the three "choices" we can make as a society to stop the growth of population that ultimately is using up the fossils in large quantities. First choice is to voluntarily act as a community by considering what is happening in our world and deciding not to have alot of children knowing that overpopulation is a serious problem. This would be the nicest choice...
the second is involuntarily sterilization. this is awful to us female... nobody would care for this act but it is an option if things continue to get worse
the third choice, which in my opinion is the worse, is just to face the suffering and death we will see in years, or the generation after us will see. This is the last choice if nothing improves...

this is going to sound corny , but its all up to us. we hold the decision in our hands
