It is known to all that the shortage of oil has attacked the whole world in these recent days. The price of various kinds of oil has always been increased. Oil is always regarded as the black blood to support the industry. The shortage of oil can seriously affect the normal progress of the economy, although the shortage can prove the economic resurgence from financial crisis oppositely. In order to develop the economy to the full extent, all the countries are struggling for oil. America is the first largest oil importing country and China is the second largest one. The increasing price of oil can cause direct negative impact on the industrial production, agricultural production and daily life of households. Take the energy situation in China as an example. The developing China has already become a large consumer of energy including oil. However, the per capita hold of resources in China is much lower than the global average level. The energy utilization rate in China is also lower than that in developed countries. Under the case of the energy shortage, the social and economic development can be seriously affected. In order to alleviate the shortage of oil, the countries all over the world should conserve energy and set up a conservation-minded society. The governments should strengthen the publicity of energy conservation to make their people understand the significance of energy conservation and enhance the consciousness of saving energy. At the same time, the governments should enhance the investment to improve the techniques of conserving energy and introduce the new energy-saving technologies to the enterprises and ordinary people. What's more, relevant laws should be set up to supervise and urge the whole society to save energy. All the citizens have obligations to try their best to save the energy. In addition, industrial structure should be adjusted reasonably and the industries with high energy consumption and low output should be regulated strictly. The alternative energy like hydrogen energy should be developed so as to decrease the dependence on oil. The alternative energy will not release dangerous chemical substances like methane when they are burnt. The industrial policy for energy conservation should also be set up to develop the environmental-friendly and energy-saving economy. The shortage of oil has become a serious problem for the whole world to deal with. It is necessary for various countries to cooperate with each other to solve the shortage of energy, which can maintain a smooth and sustainable development for the whole world.
